Title: option to skip html escaping

I found this option useful when allowing user submitted data to use Markdown. Namely, *all* of their data must be sanitized. However, blackfriday then escapes quotes and angle brackets inside code blocks and other various things, which makes the appearance less the palatable. (i.e., '&' instead of '&' or '"' instead of ".)

So I've added an option, HTML_SKIP_ESCAPE, that completely skips over all escaping when enabled.
