  """Checks for the correctness of various spacing issues in the code.

  Things we check for: spaces around operators, spaces after
  if/for/while/switch, no spaces around parens in function calls, two
  spaces between code and comment, don't start a block with a blank
  line, don't end a function with a blank line, don't add a blank line
  after public/protected/private, don't have too many blank lines in a row.

  Args:
    filename: The name of the current file.
    clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file.
    linenum: The number of the line to check.
    nesting_state: A NestingState instance which maintains information about
                   the current stack of nested blocks being parsed.
    error: The function to call with any errors found.
