This removes CodeMirror and Highlight and replaces them with mdEdit, a syntax-highlighted, semi-formatted markdown editor I've been working on, based on Prism.

This means much nicer and more consistent styling of code highlighting, consistent with fenced code blocks, and hopefully less buggy than CodeMirror's GFM implementation.

It also means it should be much easier to include support for things like YAML front-matter or markdown extensions (footnotes, superscript, subscript etc) without confusing the editor view's syntax highlighting.

@jbt so mdEdit/Prism is going to be the future of this project? Should I still go with the CodeMirror one? I need an embeddable markdown editor (better with image paste/drop in support) in my project. I went through a couple of solutions and find yours is the most promising one. While I reach this pull request, I am sure if I should wait for the merge or the merge is not going to happen is the recent future
