- Add an `InlineCode` option for inline code blocks
- When `PreventSurroundingPre` option is enabled, do not wrap the code by `Line` and `CodeLine`
- Write and update related tests
This cleans up the API in general, removing a bunch of deprecated stuff,
cleaning up circular imports, etc.
But the biggest change is switching to an optional XML format for the
regex lexer.
Having lexers defined only in Go is not ideal for a couple of reasons.
Firstly, it impedes a significant portion of contributors who use Chroma
in Hugo, but don't know Go. Secondly, it bloats the binary size of any
project that imports Chroma.
Why XML? YAML is an abomination and JSON is not human editable. XML
also compresses very well (eg. Go template lexer XML compresses from
3239 bytes to 718).
Why a new syntax format? All major existing formats rely on the
Oniguruma regex engine, which is extremely complex and for which there
is no Go port.
Why not earlier? Prior to the existence of fs.FS this was not a viable
option.

A slight increase in init time, but I think this is okay given the
increase in flexibility.

Apparently only "phrasing content" are permitted inside `pre` and
`code`, and `div` is not one of them, so replace it with `span`, `div`
wasn't necessary anyway.
Also it makes sense to put code inside `code` tag(except for line
numbers).
Removed `overflow:auto` and `width: auto` as they didn't seem to be
necessary and actually prevented horizontal scroll bar to appear when content
didn't fit in the viewport.
Currently its already possible to make line lumbers linkeable. Getting
such a link however requires the end user to look at the pages source
and then to manually edit the URL, which is not a great UX.
This PR changes that to make the line numbers a link to themselves, so
clicking on them gives a link to that line that can then be passed
around, similiar to e.G. GitHub.
This allows the boolean options to be reconfigured, e.g:
```go
options := getOptions()
options = append(options, html.WithLineNumbers(true))
```
Fixes#301
Since these are wrapped in a `<pre>`, newlines hint the browser that the
line numbers should be on separate lines. This helps when rendering
content with broken CSS, or in a text-only browser.
This was done to speed up incremental compilation when working on
lexers. That is, modifying a single lexer will no longer require
recompiling all lexers.
This is a (slightly) backwards breaking change in that lexers are no
longer exported directly in the lexers package. The registry API is
"aliased" at the old location.
This is to solve an issue where writers returned by the Formatter
were often stateful, but this fact was not obvious to the API consumer,
and failed in interesting ways.
