Support markdown-style quote blocks

Proposed documentation:

Quotes

Documentation may include a section of quoted material by prefixing each line of the section with a >. Quotes may include headings, lists, embedded code, etc.

/**
 * > To D, or not to D. -- Willeam NerdSpeare
 */

Lines of text that directly follow a quoted line are considered part of the quote:

/**
 * > This line
 * and this line are both part of the quote
 *
 * This line is not part of the quote.
 */

Looks very similar to the code above. Can this be extracted somehow, or will that just make it more complicated?

[dgileadi]

I made a function that combines the two, and hopefully addresses the quoteMacroLevel comment as well.

[jacob-carlborg]

It would be nice with a screenshot of how this looks rendered. I suggest you include screenshots in future PRs as well.

Is this enabled by default or enabled using some flag?

Is this enabled by default or enabled using some flag?

Like all the markdown features, it's enabled by the -preview=markdown flag. For this feature that flag is checked on line 3909.

Right, I missed that. 👍.
