Question about jsx-child-element-spacing logic and <br/> tags

[pascalpp]

A couple examples:

  return (
    <div className="break-tag-example">
      one line
      <br/>
      another line
    </div>
  );

  return (
    <div className="break-tag-example">
      one line<br/>
      another line
    </div>
  );

Both of these are flagged for ambiguous spacing by jsx-child-element-spacing. But it seems in both cases the intent is clear and both would render as expected in the browser. I wonder if there could be some exception made for <br/> tags?

I would definitely expect the first example to be acceptable.

@ljharb I've opened PR #2989 which simply removes BR from the set of inline elements, because I don't think there's any case where whitespace around a br tag would result in a different result rendered in the browser. Can you have a look?
