scoper removes blank lines in all code even in files that are in "excluded-namespaces"

While this usually is not a problem, this results in broken code where whitespace matters, e.g. protobuf or grpc

Additionally, it also alters otherwhitespace unneccessarily, e.g. $foo.'asd' is changed to $foo . 'asd' even in lines where scoper didn't change anything (not 100% sure, but I think this also breaks protobuf stuff, but couldn't really test it since the empty lines already broke it)

Related to #1083 and #1051.

Unfortunately I could not make it work yet.

Unfortunately that setting does nothing for that. This setting only affects how some symbols are collected/processed, but it means it's still a file that is processed by PHP-Scoper i.e. it is printed using the configured PHP-Parser printer. You would need to use excluded files. But maybe there is undesired side-effects, hard to tell.
