A feeble attempt at #14257 and perhaps #11870. Allows formatting javadocs as markdown. It also adds prism.js so that code blocks are highlighted using a modern highlighter.
I've converted LuceneTestCase's javadoc as a PoC that it works.
The formatting is done using a custom fork of google-java-format. I've gotten tired of waiting for google/google-java-format#1231 and decided to publish a fork of google-java-format which doesn't break (or touch) markdown javadocs.
Be careful with IDE formatters. If they use the vanilla google-java-format, they may break markdown comments when reflowing longer lines. I don't have a solution for this at the moment; I recommend not caring about code structure until just before pushing the code to github and running tidy beforehand.
