Multi-line `if`/`for` statements in JS can be confusing since there aren’t braces to indicate which code is enclosed in the statement. I set the configuration to `multi-line` to enforce usage of braces for multi-line statement bodies, but still allow things like `if (foo) return;`. I additionally added the `consistent` option to require braces for all elements of an if/else chain if one element has it. As you can see, this set of options pretty closely matches the existing code style. I was going to comment in #1008 about this stylistic change but realized that it’s (IMO) a little impolite to ask for code style changes unless they can be automatically enforced. Note that `if (foo) { \n return; \n }` is still valid and won’t be collapsed. I tried to automatically collapse all such cases but it was a lot of files and I didn’t want to pick out the useful from the useless differences.
