Trailing space(s) on empty line affects start of comments. Ktlint deletes both lines' indentation

[carstenhag]

Expected Behavior

Ktlint deletes 4 spaces, leaves the 1st multiline comment untouched

Observed Behavior

Ktlint deletes 4 spaces and also the indentation of the 1st multiline comment line

Steps to Reproduce

· = space

interface IKtLintTest {
····/**
·····* Something 1
·····*/
····val test: String
····
····/**
·····* Something 2
·····*/
····val authenticationState: AuthState?

····/**
·····* Something 3
·····*/
····val test: String

}

.editorconfig

[*.{kt,kts}]
indent_size=4
insert_final_newline=true

-->

interface IKtLintTest {

····/**
·····* Something 1
·····*/
····val test: String

/**
·····* Something 2
·····*/
····val authenticationState: AuthState?

····/**
·····* Something 3
·····*/
····val test: String
}

If I manually remove the 4 spaces at the empty line, then run ktlint again, it doesn't break the multiline comment anymore.
