        <pre>Currently clang-format will add a new continuationIdent for each nested paren,
but some project styles (e.g. FreeBSD) want a single continuation indent.

Example:
if (sscanf(ln + 16, "%d %d %d %d", &fbbw, &fbbh, &fbbox,
    &fbboy) != 4)
is reformatted to:
if (sscanf(ln + 16, "%d %d %d %d", &fbbw, &fbbh, &fbbox,
        &fbboy) != 4)


Clang-format adds another 4 spaces (continuation ident) for the nested scanf()
call, but the correct style would be to only add a single continuation indent.
See <a href="https://reviews.freebsd.org/D26340">https://reviews.freebsd.org/D26340</a> for the examples that prompted this bug
report.

I think the existing behaviour makes sense, so fixing this would probably
require
a new format option to only indent once.</pre>
