What I did (steps to reproduce)

When I reformat a LaTeX file where a table with URLs that contain ampersands, then spaces get added to the sides of the ampersands. This effect occurs for every subsequent reformatting, which can lead to a lot of extra spaces.

Minimal example to reproduce the problem

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
    \begin{tabular}{ll}
        a & \url{https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=SHq6ADlwRNZ1hwOB&t=18} \\
        b & \url{https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=SHq6ADlwRNZ1hwOB&t=18}
    \end{tabular}
\end{document}

Expected behavior

The table should be aligned correctly, in the above case, nothing should change:

\begin{tabular}{ll}
    a & \url{https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=SHq6ADlwRNZ1hwOB&t=18} \\
    b & \url{https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=SHq6ADlwRNZ1hwOB&t=18}
\end{tabular}

Actual behavior

Spaces are added to the sides of the ampersands:

\begin{tabular}{ll}
    a & \url{https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=SHq6ADlwRNZ1hwOB & t=18} \\
    b & \url{https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=SHq6ADlwRNZ1hwOB & t=18}
\end{tabular}

Oddly, if the ampersands are escaped, then spaces are only added to the right:

\begin{tabular}{ll}
    a & \url{https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=SHq6ADlwRNZ1hwOB\& t=18} \\
    b & \url{https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=SHq6ADlwRNZ1hwOB\& t=18}
\end{tabular}

Thanks a lot for reporting this! I have indeed missed this edge case in the formatting tests.
