/**
* Formats an ACL/SL string.
* This takes an input string, formats it (adding new-lines
* and spaces in an attempt to improve readability), and returns
* the result.
* The formatted output is similar to that used for the examples
* in the FIPA SL spec. The formatter attempts to keep short
* expressions on one line, while indenting longer expressions to
* show the structure. As an example, the result of:
* <pre>
* System.out.println(SLFormatter.format("(vehicle :color red :max-speed 100 :owner (Person :name Luis :nationality Potuguese))"));
* </pre>
* is the output
* <pre>
* (vehicle
* :color red
* :max-speed 100
* :owner
* (Person
* :name Luis
* :nationality Portuguese))
* </pre>
* Usually, the input string will come from a
* call to ACLMessage.getContent(), for example if you have
* an ACLMessage called msg, you can print formatted content:
* <pre>
* System.out.println(SLFormatter.format(msg.getContent());
* </pre>
* Since text ACL messages follow an SL style, you can also
* use this function to format entire messages by formatting
* the return value from msg.toString().
*
* @param s ACL/SL string to be formatted
*
* @return formatted result string
