bug: vimdoc should remove whitespace in front of indented code blocks

[mikesmithgh]

I have an issue where code blocks are not displaying correctly in some of my nested lists. I am not sure if this is specific to lists or occurs in other scenarios. I have added the steps to reproduce below. The issue that happens is the start of the codeblock > does not have a blank line above it and it has whitespace in front of it causing issues with vim help syntax.

Thanks!

Run the command ./panvimdoc.sh --project-name test-code-block --input-file test-README.md

test-README.md

    # test code blocks
    
    ```lua
        print('code block at root')
        print('code block at root')
        print('code block at root')
    ```
    
    - list
    
        ```lua
            print('code block in list')
            print('code block in list')
            print('code block in list')
        ```
    
      - sublist
        - a
    
            ```lua
                print('a')
                print('a')
                print('a')
            ```
    
        - b
    
            ```lua
                print('b')
                print('b')
                print('b')
            ```

Thanks for opening the issue. I've been swamped with work and personal life at the moment, and I'll look into this when I get the chance (hopefully in a few weeks?).
