This style check looks for cases where the words the then in an on if is it but for or at and do to
are repeated in a sentence. It uses a multi-line match to catch the especially common mistake in docs where the last word on a line is repeated as the first word of the next line. There are inevitably be some false positives with this check, for example, some docs data tables have the same word in adjacent columns. There are a few different ways to express this text as a regex which have wildly different execution time. This impl was carefully chosen to attempt to minimize matching time.
