Actual (Problematic) Behavior

There is an issue with syntax highlighting in case of Markdown files:

Continuation lines of list elements are highlighted as if they were code blocks, if the indentation is 4 spaces (3 spaces between the - and the text), or one tab:

List:

-   item1
-   item2
    continuation of item2

    paragraph, still part of the list item2

Not part of list.

In the Language Editor within the Monaco-Editor of the Monarch documention this is displayed as:

Monarch's language syntax definition for Markdown contains a rule for code blocks that renders indented lines (4 spaces or a tab) as string:

[
	// list (starting with * or number)
	[/^\s*([\*\-+:]|\d+\.)\s/, 'keyword'],

	// code block (4 spaces indent)
	[/^(\t|[ ]{4})[^ ].*$/, 'string']
]

This also explains why the effect is visible only if the indentation of the continuation lines is exactly 4 spaces or 1 tab, not if it is e.g. 3 spaces. Perhaps the grammar for lists would need to be more complex.
Lists can also contain sub elements such as paragraphs, tables, code blocks and nested lists etc.

Additional Context

monaco-editor version: 0.52.2

Start with the Monarch Markdown syntax definition and reproduce the example in the linked Monaco Editor Playground. Review the list and indented code-block rules shown in the issue, then verify that continuation lines remain part of list items without changing the highlighting of genuine code blocks or unrelated indentation.
