(YAML) Handling of '\' #4068

Highlight.js seems to treat '\' in YAML as escaping the ' but with ' quoting the backslash does not escape the apostrophe in YAML.

Can anything be escaped in single quoted YAML strings?

https://yaml.org/spec/1.2.2/#single-quoted-style covers this. The apostrophe can be escaped by doubling it. That's it.
