Description:
Applies a character style to `text` enclosed in backquotes (backticks).

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create Markdown file. ( include text enclosed in backquotes )
   For example:
   This is `mono-text`.

2. Open the created Markdown file with Writer.

Actual Results:
3. "mono-text" will be converted to the Mono font family and displayed accordingly.

Expected Results:
3. For example, "mono-text" be applied the "Teletype" of character styles.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:

I know this conversion is correct in terms of Markdown syntax, but if we follow the conventions recommended in Writer, we should apply character styles instead.

When character styles are applied, it becomes as easy as with most Markdown viewers to change the character color and highlight color.

Reproducible
