Bug: Allow CSS classes in verbatim tags

Originally asked in Support.DisableRenderingInBlocks

I would like to have the option to have a CSS class assigned to a verbatim or pre tag, like:

<pre class="myclass">
my text
</pre>

Currently the class="myclass" is being parsed out.

In Render.pm::putBackBlocks is documented that this should be possible:

Parameters to the outermost cut block are replaced into the open tag, even if that tag is changed. This allows things like <verbatim class=""> to be mapped to <pre class="">

Fix record

OK, fixed, along with a mountain of other stuff that it revealed.

There are still some instances in the code where the topic is parsed in a "non-standard" way. They should be tidied up over time, as we get testcases in place to make sure nothing breaks.
