Modified setext heading spec to allow multiline headings.
Text like Foo bar --- baz is now interpreted as heading + paragraph, rather than paragraph + thematic break + paragraph. Existing implementations diverge quite a bit on this case, with several interpretations: 1. paragraph, heading, paragraph 2. paragraph, break, paragraph 3. paragraph containing literal `---` 4. heading, paragraph Interpretation 4 seems most natural, and it opens up an expressive possibility otherwise closed off -- multiline headings. Authors who want interpretation 2 can use a form that can't be interpreted as a setext heading line, e.g. Foo bar * * * baz or insert blank space around the thematic break. Authors who want interpretation 3 can use backslash escapes. Authors who want interpretation 1 can put a blank line after the first paragraph.
