AsciiDocPropertyReferenceWriter is not reproducible

[melix]

Given the same inputs, the generated config-properties.adoc file might be different.

While working on refactoring the micronaut-core build, I wrote an utility to check that the generated jar files were the same byte-to-byte before and after the migration. I noticed that it wasn't the case because of 2 files:

• config-properties.adoc, generated by this project
• spring-configuration-metadata.json

Here's a file generated in a first round:
