* Add a minimal definition of alt text to the definition of preformatted
mode toggle lines, to address accessability and searchability
concerns, as well as to close, or at least ameliorate, the
extensibility loophole identified by Katarina Eriksson.
Any text following the leading "```" of a preformat toggle line which
toggles preformatted mode off MUST be ignored by clients.

This seems to be (partially) closing the loophole at the opening of a preformatted block, but leaving the matching loophole at the end intact? If it's ignored by today's clients, it can be used by tomorrow's.
