showXXXMessage API does not support code formatting in markdown

[kschaab]

Issue Type: Bug

Call

vscode.window.showWarningMessage('vs code shows some markdown here but not `code`, why not?');

Note that code will be in the message rather than styled code segment even though links work in this message.
