nginx config file formatter and beautifier

This module beautifies and formats Nginx configuration files like so:

• all lines are indented in uniform manner, with 4 spaces per level
• neighbouring empty lines are collapsed to at most two empty lines
• curly braces placement follows Java convention
• whitespaces are collapsed, except in comments an quotation marks and sub_filter directive

Michał Słomkowski - Original code was ported from their project(nginxfmt.py), and also used their readme.md as a template. Some methods were rewritten or changed a bit, but most of the code follows their design.

Yosef - Porter of the Python code to js: check out his awesome nginxbeautifier from where this project was forked from.

Notes:

I am keeping the same licenese format as the one that was given by the owner of the project the code was ported from: Apache 2.0.
