Pressing Ctrl+Shift+F for format in CDT preserves only one blank line.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Suppose we have the following 3 functions each separated by 3 lines.
void
func1()
{
  //body
}



void
func2()
{
  //body
}



void
func3()
{
  //body
}

2. After using Ctrl+Shift+F, we get:
void
func1()
{
  //body
}

void
func2()
{
  //body
}

void
func3()
{
  //body
}

3. This feature is already present for Java IDE but not for C/C++ IDE.
