Add Prettier Plugin Support for Rewrap

[christopher-buss]

Summary

Request to create a Prettier plugin that integrates Rewrap's intelligent comment wrapping capabilities into Prettier's formatting pipeline.

Currently, prettier doesn't handle comment wrapping (prettier/prettier#265).

Proposed Solution

Create a Prettier plugin that:

• Integrates Rewrap's comment wrapping logic into Prettier's formatting pipeline
• Respects Prettier's printWidth configuration
• Maintains Rewrap's word boundary detection
• Works with all file types that both Prettier and Rewrap support

Benefits

• Unified formatting workflow: One command (prettier --write) handles all formatting
• CI/CD integration: Easier to enforce consistent formatting in automated workflows
• Editor integration: Works seamlessly with Prettier's extensive editor support

Technical Considerations

This would likely involve:

• Creating a new npm package (e.g., prettier-plugin-rewrap)
• Implementing Prettier's plugin API
• Adapting Rewrap's core logic to work within Prettier's AST processing
• Ensuring configuration compatibility between the tools

This would complement existing Prettier plugins like prettier-plugin-jsdoc by handling general comment formatting while JSDoc-specific plugins handle documentation structure.
