Asterisk wall interpreted as a list

[jverkoey]

It's not uncommon to see comment blocks like

/**
 *
 *
 *
 */

These comment blocks are interpreted as a ul, presumably by the markdown parser.

I realize Swift docs generally don't use the asterisk wall, but this presents somewhat of a challenge for the ObjC code that does :)

Ah, thanks for letting me know... I may be naïve, but I think solving this may be as simple as adding the asterisk to the whitespace and newline character set used here: https://github.com/jpsim/SourceKitten/blob/master/Source/SourceKittenFramework/String+SourceKitten.swift#L301-L319

What do you think?

Oh, nifty! That sounds like exactly the place to fix this :) Lemme try putting together a PR quick.

What was lineLeadingWhitespace != line.characters.count guarding against? I'm considering removing it because it causes empty lines like _* not to be considered (where _ is a space).

/**
_*_Some text
_*
_*/

In that case _*_ is being selected as the prefix which ends up leaving the _* line untrimmed.
