Possible powershell.codeFormatting.whitespaceAroundOperator bug

[AWahlqvist]

Issue Description

Not sure if this is an actual bug or not, but consider this example when setting powershell.codeFormatting.whitespaceAroundOperator to true:

$numberOfDaysToSubtract = 10
(Get-Date).AddDays(-$numberOfDaysToSubtract)

When using the "auto-formatter", VSCode changes it to:

$numberOfDaysToSubtract = 10
(Get-Date).AddDays( - $numberOfDaysToSubtract)

Is that the expected behavior? It does work of course, but I've never seen it written like that ever, so wanted to confirm if it's intented.

Thanks!

That seems like a bug to me. That rule should handle unary operators differently - as in enforcing no space between the operator and its target.

So this formatting actually comes from PSScriptAnalyzer. We just get the results from it and make the changes to the code.

Can you move this over to there so the folks that work on PSSA are aware?

Thanks @tylerl0706! I opened up an issue over at the PSSA repo instead!
