The formatter wraps tags with more than 3 attributes one-per-line regardless of maxLineLength. Surface this on the maxLineLength option so users aren't surprised when short multi-attribute tags wrap. Refs marcoroth#928

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Thanks @andy-rootly! 🙏🏼
I wonder if we should reconsider this rule and only wrap the attributes when they wouldn't fit within the maxLineLength.
I'm open to suggestions.

The formatter wraps tags one-attribute-per-line under two conditions (see
attribute-renderer.ts#L91):maxLineLength, OROnly the first is documented today. The second can be surprising in practice —
<div a="1" b="2" c="3" d="4">wraps even though it's 36 characters wide, well under the 80-char default. This PR adds a short note on themaxLineLengthoption flagging the count rule.The docs site (
docs/docs/projects/formatter.md)@includes this README, so herb-tools.dev picks the change up automatically.
