Pass a Markdown serializer to the Content Editor

Enrique Alcántara requested to merge content-editor-markdown-serializer into master

What does this MR do?

This MR Refactors the Content Editor to decouple Markdown serializing from the Editor itself. The goal is allowing to customize Markdown serialization by configuring a separate serialization object independently from the Content Editor itself.

What are the serialization/deserialization targets?

When deserializing, we want to convert a Markdown string into a ProseMirror document and serialization performs the inverse operation.

Why is this useful?

We have to parse and render Markdown before converting it into a ProseMirror document. The process of parsing and rendering Markdown varies across use cases. That’s why we want to decouple this operation from the Content Editor.

Screenshots (strongly suggested)

This MR does not introduce user-facing changes. The Content Editor is not used by any feature yet.
