Fixing PSAvoidTrailingWhitespace is broken #1757
Description
Using the Fix option for the PSAvoidTrailingWhitespace rule is broken.
Steps to reproduce
I have installed PSScriptAnalyzer v1.20.0 using chocolatey and run the following command in this folder: https://github.com/mandiant/VM-Packages/tree/2726fcde4bba996dcd446b240c3439a129ddba7d/packages
Invoke-ScriptAnalyzer . -Recurse -IncludeRule PSAvoidTrailingWhitespace -FixExpected behavior
I had expected this command to fix the offenses of the PSAvoidTrailingWhitespace rule.
Actual behavior
It removes } causing a MissingEndCurlyBrace parsing error, as you can see in the git diff:
An <U+FEFF> is also added at the beginning of the modified files. This seems related to #1743
