* linefeeds and indentation.

* Note: since Jackson 2.1, stateful implementations MUST implement
* {@link com.fasterxml.jackson.core.util.Instantiatable} interface,
* to allow for constructing per-generation instances and avoid
* state corruption.
* Stateless implementations need not do this; but those are less common.
