Use any whitespace in indentation of multiline regular strings

[Maiori44]

the flag could let you choose between X spaces or tabs, or between letting the preprocessor figure it out on its own on every file
But then, what should the default value of the flag be?

[Lyrth]

Having a set amount of whitespace (constant) might be detrimental since the string can be in any depth.

local a, b
if A {
    a = "
        hello
        world
    "
    if B {
        b = "
            and hello
            Clue
        "
    }
}

Probably best to make it figure it out on its own for each string.

okay, but what if someone does want a bit of spaces before? how could it tell the preprocessor "no wait stop a bit earlier"

local str = "

  spaces will now be preserved
"

This would turn into:
local str = " spaces will now be preserved"
So that's not an issue.

This was now implemented in 4.0.
