Unbreak ktfmt on JDK 11 Summary: Kotlin Compiler reports the modules it loads, presumably on JDK >= 9. Unfortunately for `ktfmt`, no logger was configured, so Kotlin Compiler would do the logical thing of blowing up. Adding a logger unbreaks `ktfmt`.

ktfmt is a program that pretty-prints (formats) Kotlin code, based on google-java-format.
Note that ktfmt still has some rough edges which we're constantly working on fixing.

For comparison, the same code formatted by ktlint and IntelliJ:

In particular,
ktfmt ignores most existing formatting. It respects existing newlines in some places, but in general, its output is determinstic and is independent of the input code.ktfmt exposes no configuration options that govern formatting behavior. See https://github.com/google/google-java-format/wiki/FAQ#i-just-need-to-configure-it-a-bit-differently-how for the rationale.These two properties make ktfmt a good fit in large Kotlin code bases, where consistency is very important.
We created ktfmt because ktlint and IntelliJ sometime fail to produce nice-looking code that fits in 100 columns, as can be seen in the Demo section.
ktfmt uses a 2-space indent; why not 4?Two reasons -
