Implement a better reStructuredText syntax highlighting

[mgaitan]

The syntax highlighting built-in with SublimeText is very poor (many users agree: 1, 2, 3)

Important things it doesn't hightlight are:

• headers,
• codeblock (nor any directive or indented block),
• emphatized or strong text,
• replaces,
• lists,
• table borders,

I've researched a bit to compare another editors with this content.
