Description

Because normalization often replaces end-of-line characters this can result in a mix of EOL characters coming out of the file.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the Syntax Normalizer implementation to understand how it handles trivia, particularly end of line trivia. Look for the method that replaces EndOfLineTrivia and ensure all trivia is preserved during normalization.
