// Basic parser and formatter for very simple text markup. Mostly targeted at
// mobile use cases similar to Telegram and WhatsApp.
//
// Supports:
// *abc* -> <b>abc</b>
// _abc_ -> <i>abc</i>
// ~abc~ -> <del>abc</del>
// `abc` -> <tt>abc</tt>
// Nested frmatting is supported, e.g. *abc _def_* -> <b>abc <i>def</i></b>
//
// URLs, @mentions, and #hashtags are extracted and converted into links.
//
// JSON data representation is inspired by Draft.js raw formatting.
/*
Text:

combined *bold and _italic_*

second #hashtag
