DText changes:

I imported a bunch of commits from the Danbooru implementation of DText which overall should fix a bunch of issues and make it more forgiving to newlines and unbalanced input. Here are a few fixes I can explicitly call out, though there are many more improvements for edge cases as well which I don't feel like writing down. Take a look at dtext_rb#6 for a full list of changes.

Changed:

• Changed [DText] Use native html <details> element for sections. dtext_rb#27653ff4c
• Changed [DText] Stop lists incorrectly closing previous tags. In practise this means that the next list element must always come directly on the next line. dtext_rb#c6cd30d7b
• Changed [DText] When a header is the first element it no longer takes up unnessesary top padding. 460be5632
• Changed [DText] Use consistent margins for quotes, sections and lists. 4a0571aed

Fixes:

• Fix [DText] Prevent unclosed [b], [i] etc. in quotes/sections/spoilers from bleeding out. dtext_rb#488f5d4e0 dtext_rb#422e3a9bc dtext_rb#33c97f1e9
• Fix [DText] Fix parsing of unexpected [/quote], [/section] tags. dtext_rb#67062a87a dtext_rb#ec22c6b91
• Fix [DText] Headers like h1. Test no longer require a blank line above them. dtext_rb#ccec0eb3c
• Fix [DText] Better handling when using * [color=xxxxxx] abc [/color] when color is not allowed. dtext_rb#4b08af9d0
