John MacFarlane 28eca1e41e Markdown reader: remove some misguided list fanciness.
Previously we tried to handle things like commented out list
items:

    - one
    <!--
    - two
    -->
    - three

and also things like:

    - one `and
    - two` and

But the code we added to handle these cases caused problems with
other, more straightforward things, like:

    - one
    - ```
      code
      ```
    - three

So we are rolling back all the fanciness, so that the markdown
parser now behaves more like the commonmark parser, in which
indicators of block-level structure always take priority over
indicators of inline structure.

Closes #9865. Closes #7778. See also #5628.

Here the thing to remember is that block level structure indications take precedence over inline level structure indications:
