[Ada-mode-users] Ada-mode unconditionally sets comment-padding

[SCHOEPFLIN Markus]

Ada-mode currently contains the following code:

  ;; AdaCore standard style (enforced by -gnaty) requires two spaces
  ;; after '--' in comments; this makes it easier to distinguish
  ;; special comments that have something else after '--'
  (set (make-local-variable 'comment-padding) "  ")

This unconditionally overwrites commend-padding, despite the variable being 
explicitly documented as customizable. In my case this breaks a number of elisp 
functions defined locally for dealing with comments.

Could this please be replaced with something that checks if the variable has 
been customized before? Or even better, don't overwrite it in the first place? 
Anybody wanting to follow AdaCore standards can still customize it to two 
spaces manually.

TIA,
Markus
