/**
 * Replaces double line-breaks with paragraph elements.
 *
 * A group of regex replaces used to identify text formatted with newlines and
 * replace double line-breaks with HTML paragraph tags. The remaining
 * line-breaks after conversion become <<br />> tags, unless $br is set to '0'
 * or 'false'.
 *
 * @since 0.71
 *
 * @param string $pee The text which has to be formatted.
 * @param int|bool $br Optional. If set, this will convert all remaining line-breaks after paragraphing. Default true.
 * @return string Text which has been converted into correct paragraph tags.
