Github Task Lists

Add support for Github Task Lists under the gfm flag.

Changes to API

* list(*string* body, *boolean* ordered, *boolean* taskList)
* listitem(*string* text, [*boolean* checked]).

`checked` is defined when you have a list item which starts with `[ ] ` or
`[x] `.If defined its a boolean depending on whether the `x` is
present. When checked is defined we add a input type type `checkbox` to
the list item and add the class `task-list-item-checkbox`.

`taskList` is true if a list has any list items where `checked` is
defined. When true we add the class `task-list` to the list.
