Allow empty first line after code block with ruff format

[alechouse97]

I've seen some discussion on here about allowing/not allowing an empty first line after a new code block with ruff format. This was updated to be allowed by black 24+. It also seems that black's removing of the empty new line was only a feature in black 23; previous versions of black did not enforce this.

Is there any willingness to allow these empty newlines in ruff? Or perhaps an optional flag to allow them? I agree with others' opinions that ruff should not format existing code with no new line, but should allow empty new lines.

Thoughts?

This is a duplicate of #9745. We're considering but have no plans changing this in the short term.
