Problem: reportBlankLines

  Write a static method reportBlankLines
   that takes a Scanner containing an input file as a
   parameter and that reports to System.out the line numbers of any blank lines
   and that reports the total number of blank lines in the file.  For example,
   given the following input file:

        Remember that a file
        can have blank lines
        like the one below:
        
        A blank line:
        
        is read as a String
        of length 0
        
        by Scanner
	
   Your method should print the following output:

        line 4 is blank
        line 6 is blank
        line 9 is blank
        total blank lines = 3

   Notice that each blank line produces a line of output and that there is a
   final line of output reporting the total number of blank lines.  Also notice
   that lines are numbered starting with 1 (first line is line 1, second line
   is line 2, and so on).  You are to exactly reproduce the format of this
   output.
