Subject: Requesting to change "doesn't" to "does not", isn't to "is not".

Hello,

I believe coding guidelines does not speak about this.

But PR (https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/16705) talks on it. And its
still open.
If we donot agree on contractions, Let's close it.

Though "I am" instead of "I'm" -- both are completely correct English.
But I read on PR, It suits more on ESL speakers and takes care of
non-english speakers.

I believe while reviewing the PRs, we can ask developers for changing
"isn't" to "is not". [If we accept above PR?]
Would be a step in including "Strong Phrases, Active voices" into
documentation/Comments/std output..

What's your thought on it?

-- 
Thanks
Amit Kumar
