/**
 * <div>
 * Checks that the Javadoc content begins from the same position
 * for all Javadoc comments in the project. Any leading asterisks and spaces
 * are not counted as the beginning of the content and are therefore ignored.
 * </div>
 *
 * <p>
 * It is possible to enforce two different styles:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>
 * {@code first_line} - Javadoc content starts from the first line:
 * <div class="wrapper"><pre class="prettyprint"><code class="language-java">
 * &#47;** Summary text.
 *   * More details.
 *   *&#47;
 * public void method();
 * </code></pre></div>
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * {@code second_line} - Javadoc content starts from the second line:
 * <div class="wrapper"><pre class="prettyprint"><code class="language-java">
 * &#47;**
 *   * Summary text.
 *   * More details.
 *   *&#47;
 * public void method();
 * </code></pre></div>
 * </li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>
 * Notes:
 * This check does not validate the Javadoc summary itself nor its presence.
 * The check will not report any violations for missing or malformed javadoc summary.
 * To validate the Javadoc summary use
 * <a href="https://checkstyle.org/checks/javadoc/summaryjavadoc.html">
 * SummaryJavadoc</a> check.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * The <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/17/docs/specs/javadoc/doc-comment-spec.html">
 * Documentation Comment Specification</a> permits leading asterisks on the first line.
 * For these Javadoc comments:
 * </p>
 * <div class="wrapper"><pre class="prettyprint"><code class="language-java">
 * &#47;***
 *   * Some text.
 *   *&#47;
 * &#47;************
 *   * Some text.
 *   *&#47;
 * &#47;**           **
 *   * Some text.
 *   *&#47;
 * </code></pre></div>
 *
 * <p>
 * The documentation generated will be just "Some text." without any asterisks.
 * Since these asterisks will not appear in the generated documentation,
 * they should not be considered as the beginning of the Javadoc content.
 * In such cases, the check assumes that the Javadoc content begins on the second line.
 * </p>
 *
 * @since 8.27
