Research direction

Read the emitter’s SetStyle handling for maps and the related YAML output tests to understand the existing style controls. Then determine how a node could request multiline string output and what emitted YAML should look like; the issue does not specify the desired formatting or tests.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement help wanted

It would be nice to mark nodes to export multiline strings. Similar to how we can mark them with "SetStyle" to control the output of maps.
