InputRules should ignore escaped $ symbols

[benrbray]

I write many more LaTeX equations than dollar amounts, but I recognize that I am in the minority. For accessibility, prosemirror-math should have a standard (but configurable) way of escaping $ characters.

At the moment, the default inline input rule uses a negative-lookbehind regex to avoid inserting math nodes, but this has a few limitations:

• Negative lookbehinds are currently only supported in new-ish versions of Chrome and FireFox
• Sometimes, the input rules will accidentally latch on to a $ symbol in a distant node and assume the user wants to create a math block.

Solutions to consider:

• Modify ProseMirror's InputRule implementation to support escape sequences before a matched string
• By default, prosemirror-math should assume all $'s are math-related, unless the user explicitly indicates otherwise. For example, any of the following actions should create an escaped $
  • use a backslash \$ to escape math
  • or put a space after the dollar sign $ to escape math (automaticaly remove the space)
