/**
 * <p>
 * Controls the indentation between comments and surrounding code.
 * Comments are indented at the same level as the surrounding code.
 * Detailed info about such convention can be found
 * <a href="https://checkstyle.org/styleguides/google-java-style-20180523/javaguide.html#s4.8.6.1-block-comment-style">
 * here</a>
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Please take a look at the following examples to understand how the check works:
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Example #1: Block comments.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 1   &#47;*
 * 2    * it is Ok
 * 3    *&#47;
 * 4   boolean bool = true;
 * 5
 * 6     &#47;* violation
 * 7      * (block comment should have the same indentation level as line 9)
 * 8      *&#47;
 * 9   double d = 3.14;
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example #2: Comment is placed at the end of the block and has previous statement.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 1   public void foo1() {
 * 2     foo2();
 * 3     // it is OK
 * 4   }
 * 5
 * 6   public void foo2() {
 * 7     foo3();
 * 8       // violation (comment should have the same indentation level as line 7)
 * 9   }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example #3: Comment is used as a single line border to separate groups of methods.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 1   /////////////////////////////// it is OK
 * 2
 * 3   public void foo7() {
 * 4     int a = 0;
 * 5   }
 * 6
 * 7     ///////////////////////////// violation (should have the same indentation level as line 9)
 * 8
 * 9   public void foo8() {}
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example #4: Comment has distributed previous statement.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 1   public void foo11() {
 * 2     CheckUtil
 * 3       .getFirstNode(new DetailAST())
 * 4       .getFirstChild()
 * 5       .getNextSibling();
 * 6     // it is OK
 * 7   }
 * 8
 * 9   public void foo12() {
 * 10    CheckUtil
 * 11      .getFirstNode(new DetailAST())
 * 12      .getFirstChild()
 * 13      .getNextSibling();
 * 14              // violation (should have the same indentation level as line 10)
 * 15  }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example #5: Single line block comment is placed within an empty code block.
 * Note, if comment is placed at the end of the empty code block, we have
 * Checkstyle's limitations to clearly detect user intention of explanation
 * target - above or below. The only case we can assume as a violation is when
 * a single line comment within the empty code block has indentation level that
 * is lower than the indentation level of the closing right curly brace.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 1   public void foo46() {
 * 2     // comment
 * 3     // block
 * 4     // it is OK (we cannot clearly detect user intention of explanation target)
 * 5   }
 * 6
 * 7   public void foo46() {
 * 8  // comment
 * 9  // block
 * 10 // violation (comment should have the same indentation level as line 11)
 * 11  }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example #6: 'fallthrough' comments and similar.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 0   switch(a) {
 * 1     case "1":
 * 2       int k = 7;
 * 3       // it is OK
 * 4     case "2":
 * 5       int k = 7;
 * 6     // it is OK
 * 7     case "3":
 * 8       if (true) {}
 * 9           // violation (should have the same indentation level as line 8 or 10)
 * 10    case "4":
 * 11    case "5": {
 * 12      int a;
 * 13    }
 * 14    // fall through (it is OK)
 * 15    case "12": {
 * 16      int a;
 * 17    }
 * 18    default:
 * 19      // it is OK
 * 20  }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example #7: Comment is placed within a distributed statement.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 1   String breaks = "J"
 * 2   // violation (comment should have the same indentation level as line 3)
 * 3       + "A"
 * 4       // it is OK
 * 5       + "V"
 * 6       + "A"
 * 7   // it is OK
 * 8   ;
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example #8: Comment is placed within an empty case block.
 * Note, if comment is placed at the end of the empty case block, we have
 * Checkstyle's limitations to clearly detect user intention of explanation
 * target - above or below. The only case we can assume as a violation is when
 * a single line comment within the empty case block has indentation level that
 * is lower than the indentation level of the next case token.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 1   case 4:
 * 2     // it is OK
 * 3   case 5:
 * 4  // violation (should have the same indentation level as line 3 or 5)
 * 5   case 6:
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example #9: Single line block comment has previous and next statement.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 1   String s1 = "Clean code!";
 * 2      s.toString().toString().toString();
 * 3   // single line
 * 4   // block
 * 5   // comment (it is OK)
 * 6   int a = 5;
 * 7
 * 8   String s2 = "Code complete!";
 * 9    s.toString().toString().toString();
 * 10            // violation (should have the same indentation level as line 11)
 * 11       // violation (should have the same indentation level as line 12)
 * 12     // violation (should have the same indentation level as line 13)
 * 13  int b = 18;
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Example #10: Comment within the block tries to describe the next code block.
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * 1   public void foo42() {
 * 2     int a = 5;
 * 3     if (a == 5) {
 * 4       int b;
 * 5       // it is OK
 * 6      } else if (a ==6) { ... }

 * 8
 * 9   public void foo43() {
 * 10    try {

 * 12     // Why do we catch exception here? - violation (not the same indentation as line 11)
 * 13     } catch (Exception e) { ... }
