Selfclosing Break Line Tag <br /> tag in html content is converted into <br> open tag.

[BloodDrag0n]

I am using antisamy to sanitize HTML contents. During the parsing of the HTML Data, the
(self-closing) tag is converted into
(open tag). Is there any specific reason behind this behavior change? Is there any way to retain the
tags?

Eg Input Html Data: <p>this is para data</p><br/><p>this is para data 2</p>

Eg Output Html Data: <p>this is para data</p><br><p>this is para data 2</p>

HtmlUnit-Neko version using - 3.11.2
Antisamy version using - 1.7.5

hi @BloodDrag0n, looks like a bug, will have a look

@BloodDrag0n have added a test case but for me this looks ok from a first look. Any idea?

looks like the root cause is in antisamy - not in neko; see nahsra/antisamy#484
