Write the specified `comment` into the stream. The optionally specified `forceNewline`, if true, forces to start a new line solely for the comment if it's not on a new line already. Otherwise, comments continue on current line. If an element‐opening tag is not completed with a `>`, `addComment` will add `>`.
