2.6.0 regression in single-line ScalaDoc formatting

[ceedubs]

This template is a guideline, not a strict requirement.

• Version: 2.6.0
• Integration: Metals
• Configuration:

version=2.6.0
maxColumn = 100
align = none
continuationIndent.defnSite = 2
assumeStandardLibraryStripMargin = true
danglingParentheses = false
rewrite.rules = [SortImports, RedundantBraces, RedundantParens, SortModifiers]
docstrings = JavaDoc

Steps

Given code like this:

  /** alias for [[literal]] */

When I run scalafmt like this:

scalafmt

Problem

Scalafmt formats code like this:

  /**
   * alias for [[literal]] */

Expectation

I would like the formatted output to look like this:

  /** alias for [[literal]] */

Notes

This behavior changed from 2.5.3 to 2.6.0. The change might have been introduced by #1968.
