Multiline code block within a list

[John MacFarlane]

discount, PHP markdown, lunamark,  pandoc2, and possibly others
allow a code block as sole list item; you just need make sure that the text
starts in the 8th column (where the list marker is the 1st column):

*       hi
        hi

<ul>
<li><pre><code>hi
hi
</code></pre></li>
</ul>

The ``` syntax for code blocks is a github addition, not supported
by most other implementations. However, several implementations support
"fenced code blocks" like this:

~~~~
code
~~~~

pandoc allows these as sole list items.

* ~~~~
