highlighting nested code

[Dominik Haumann]

Hi Jos,

currently, MarkDown only supports Python and PHP here, see:
https://github.com/KDE/syntax-highlighting/blob/master/data/syntax/markdown.xml#L83

We'd need to add more IncludeRules for other languages we want to
support - or extend the highlighting system somehow to make this
possible more easily.

Patches welcome :-)

Best regards
Dominik
