do_split_summary treated any token ending in '.' as the end of the summary sentence, so a docstring containing an inline literal such as ``.. deprecated::`` was split in the middle of the literal, producing invalid reST. Track whether the text seen so far is inside an unclosed inline literal (an odd number of double-backtick markers) and skip the sentence break in that case, mirroring the existing ABBREVIATIONS false-positive guard. Adds a regression test covering both a literal-only summary and a literal followed by a genuine second sentence.

Closes #353.
do_split_summaryended the summary at any token ending in., so a docstring containing an inline literal like``.. deprecated::``was split in the middle of the literal, producing invalid reST. It now skips the sentence break while inside an unclosed inline literal (odd number of``markers), mirroring the existingABBREVIATIONSfalse-positive guard.Regression test fails without the source change and passes with it; the rest of the suite is unchanged (same 10 pre-existing
test_do_format_codefailures before and after).
