Research direction

Start with apps/meteor/tests/end-to-end/api/chat.ts at line 1829 and trace the backend behavior covered there. Remove the backend handling for unclosed Markdown code blocks, leaving this behavior to the client in 9.0.0, and update the referenced test so it verifies the intended behavior.
