 * A utility for writing indented text.

 * Note that the indentation is inserted at the last possible opportunity.
 * For example, this code...
 *
 * ```ts
 *   writer.write('begin\n');
 *   writer.increaseIndent();
 *   writer.write('one\ntwo\n');
 *   writer.decreaseIndent();
 *   writer.increaseIndent();
 *   writer.decreaseIndent();
 *   writer.write('end');
 * ```
 *
 * ...would produce this output:
 *
 * ```
 *   begin
 *     one
 *     two
 *   end
 * ```
