[Rule] check-alignment fix insert a letter multiple times

[joris-fonck-loreal]

Expected behavior

I don't know if it's a bug or a behavior do to formatting.

When I start a comment at the declaration line of a variable, and I lint my code, the first letter of the declaration line is inserted in the comment. Expected behavior: letters should not be inserted.

export const myVar = {/**
  * This is JSDoc
  */
  myProperty: 'hello'
}

Actual behavior

A letter is inserted in the comment. The inserted letter is the first letter of the declaration line (e for export):

export const myVar = {/**
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee * This is JSDoc
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee */
  myProperty: 'hello'
}

Another example for const:

const myVar = {/**
cccccccccccccccccccccc * This is JSDoc
cccccccccccccccccccccc */
  myProperty: 'hello'
}

What should have been happening here is that spaces should have been added instead of "e". That part is now fixed.

Now, whether that is a desirable behavior for your case, I don't know.

This is indeed the desired behavior. Thanks 😄
