Text surrounded by asterisks in inline code blocks is wrongly highlighted

[chbndrhnns]

Current behavior

When using asterisks in inline code blocks, the text between asterisks is highlighted like if it appeared in normal text blocks.

Expected behavior

Special formatting is not applied in inline code blocks

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to edit mode
2. Write

- See local-only branches: `git branch -vv | grep 'origin/.*: gone]' | awk '{print $1}'`

Environment

• Version : 0.11.8
• OS Version and name : macOS 10.13.6

I cannot replicate it.

I forgot an important requirement: It only happens if the closing tag of an inline code block is on a new line like this:

- Delete branches that no longer exist remotely: `git remote prune origin
`

- See local-only branches: `git branch -vv | grep 'origin/.*: gone]' | awk '{print $1}'`

I am not sure if this is valid for inline code to be honest.

It's a problem with codemirror which don't like the closing ` on the new line.

The highlight in the editor show how the inline code block is detected. When in the preview, the result is fine.
