puppet-lint stops validating when finding a blank line following a line with only spaces and a single quote

[rnelson0]

Running pdk validate -a against a controlrepo generates the following error. When this occurs, it stops and does not validate other files. Remove the blank line at the end resolves the error with this file, and it is validated properly. However, an issue is encountered on the next file that has that blank line issue as well, stopping again.

Thus I see two problems here:

• When puppet-lint cannot parse a file, it stops parsing ALL files. This should be overrideable behavior (perhaps it is, but I do not find a documented flag for it)

• When encountering a file that has a single quote followed by a blank line followed by a curly brace, it cannot validate that file. Removing the blank line prevents the issue. The conditions for this may be more complicated but can be replicated with this pattern at the end of the file, where at least the indentation does not seem to matter:

    }
  '
  
  }
  }

Complicating factors:

• I just upgraded to PDK 3.0.0 from 2.7.0
• I am still using pdktemplates 2.7.1
• I updated metadata.json manually (rather than through the pdk) to support puppet < 9.0.0 so that it tests against puppet 8
• I also had this line commented out in my Gemfile prior to encountering this issue gem "voxpupuli-puppet-lint-plugins", '~> 4.0', require: false

So it could be related to those plugins, or the upgrade to pdk3.0.0, or both.

I can replicate this on a smaller file as well, definitely seems related to the single quote/empty following line
