Syntax highlighting in markdown code snippets

[lioneltay]

Just discovered this project and it's awesome!

Is there a way to have syntax highlighting in markdown code snippets? I noticed it works for js/css/html snippets but does not work for languages like typescript even though syntax highlighting for typescript is a supported by the editor.

This works

```javascript
    var JavaScriptMode = require("ace/mode/javascript").Mode;
    editor.getSession().setMode(new JavaScriptMode());
```

Is there a way to make this have syntax highlighting?

```typescript
    var JavaScriptMode = require("ace/mode/javascript").Mode;
    editor.getSession().setMode(new JavaScriptMode());
```

```tsx
  console.log('Typescript React')
  const x = (
    <div>
      <h1>Hello</h1>
    </div>
  )
```

this will be possible to implement once we merge #3837

I was able to implement this by giving mode states non-colliding names and then merging them into markdown mode.
