clang-format: support aligned nested conditionals formatting
Summary:
When multiple ternary operators are chained, e.g. like an if/else-if/
else-if/.../else sequence, clang-format will keep aligning the colon
with the question mark, which increases the indent for each
conditionals:
int a = condition1 ? result1
: condition2 ? result2
: condition3 ? result3
: result4;
This patch detects the situation (e.g. conditionals used in false branch
of another conditional), to avoid indenting in that case:
int a = condition1 ? result1
: condition2 ? result2
: condition3 ? result3
: result4;
When BreakBeforeTernaryOperators is false, this will format like this:
int a = condition1 ? result1 :
condition2 ? result2 :
conditino3 ? result3 :
result4;
