Commit Message

John Snow July 3, 2024, 9:01 p.m. UTC
For any code literal blocks inside of a qmp-example directive, apply and
enforce the QMP lexer/highlighter to those blocks.

This way, you won't need to write:

```
.. qmp-example::
   :annotated:

   Blah blah

   .. code-block:: QMP

      -> { "lorem": "ipsum" }
```

But instead, simply:

```
.. qmp-example::
   :annotated:

   Blah blah::

     -> { "lorem": "ipsum" }
```

Once the directive block is exited, whatever the previous default
highlight language was will be restored; localizing the forced QMP
lexing to exclusively this directive.

Note, if the default language is *already* QMP, this directive will not
generate and restore redundant highlight configuration nodes. We may
well decide that the default language ought to be QMP for any QAPI
reference pages, but this way the directive behaves consistently no
matter where it is used.

Sadly, the previous patch didn't add tests, so this patch's effect
isn't as easy to observe as it could be.

Sorry O:-)

In truth, I never intended it to *not* have this feature, but thought it
was helpful to split out just the code responsible for this feature into
its own patch so its soul could be independently judged to see if it was
lighter than a feather.

(i.e., does the convenience justify the SLOC?)
