Newlines are still being preserved after the end of a function

[kodie]

This was also an issue with JShrink: tedious/JShrink#87 and is actually how I came across your issue related to that here: tedious/JShrink#105

But I'm still seeing this issue with js-minify.

For example:

function hello () {
  console.log('Hello World')
}

console.log('yay')

Should become:

function hello(){console.log('Hello World')}console.log('yay')

But currently it becomes:

function hello(){console.log('Hello World')}
console.log('yay')

Hi @kodie,

The reason why the library doesn't remove this whitespace can best be explained with a simple example:

let hello = function() {
  console.log('Hello World')
}

console.log('yay')

if this becomes

let hello = function(){console.log('Hello World')}console.log('yay')

the result of evaluation is

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier

I think this issue can only be resolved by full parsing the javascript file but this takes a lot of time.

@garfix In that case, couldn't we have it append a semicolon to the end of the function? So it becomes:

let hello = function(){console.log('Hello World')};console.log('yay')

I elaborated on the semicolon versus newline decision in #1.
