Add new line after writing block to hex file. (#10984)

* add new line after writing block to hex file.

* refactor for testability

* correct import

* better error reporting, code formatting

* multiline imports

* docs

* better docs, move type to common types, merge ImportBlocks and ExportBlocks

* tabs over spaces

* correct test imports

* Apply suggestions from code review

Co-Authored-By: David <dvdplm@gmail.com>

* correct typo

* fixed test import
