Pull request overview
Updates repository-wide EditorConfig settings to prevent editors from trimming trailing whitespace in .resx files, avoiding noisy whitespace churn caused by Visual Studio’s RESX generator behavior.
Changes:
- Adds a
.resx-specific EditorConfig section to disabletrim_trailing_whitespace. - Fixes the formatting/line-numbering at the end of
.editorconfig(no semantic change).

The RESX generator in Visual Studio produces extra trailing whitespaces in resx files. Manual edits to the resx files could lead editors to try to trim these whitespaces, then a next developer editing resx by Visual Studio will get those whitespaces back again, etc.
It's best to instruct editors to not touch the whitespaces in this case.
