Code formatted with three backticks gets replaced by inline code #187

Description

@DonaldDuck313

If a post has a code block surrounded by three backticks (```), the magic editor will remove all backticks except one and indent with 4 spaces. For example

```
code here
```

will be edited to something like

`
    code here
`

I get why this was implemented before Stack Overflow supported code blocks with ```, but now that they supported, I think this feature should be removed. Also if you really want to keep this, you should at least make it remove all the backticks.

Demo: Try applying the magic editor to this formatting sandbox post.
