This PR fixes #386, allowing the use of backslashes to escape HTML tags, auto-links and HTML comments.
It works by checking for pairs of backslashes preceding any markup. If there are 0 or more pairs of backslashes (eg: \\\\) then they escape themselves. If there is an odd number of backslashes then the markup has been escaped.
