fix: Remove separations after style changes (#720)

Closes #182. Closes #710. Closes #711.

## Summary

**What is the goal of this PR?**
- A longer-term, more robust fix for the issue with spurious spaces
appearing after style changes. Replaces solution from #694.

**What changes are included?**
- Add continuation flags to determine if to add a space after a word or
if the word connects to the previous word. Replaces simple solution that
only considered ending punctuation.
- Fixed an issue with greedy line-breaking algorithm where punctuation
could appear on the next line, separated from the word, if there was a
style change between the word and punctuation
