add support for rendering diagrams with mermaid

[mermaid][mermaid] generates diagrams and flowcharts from text in a
similar manner as markdown.

This adds support for rendering diagrams from any markdown code blocks
with the language tag `mermaid`.

For example the code block:

```mermaid
sequenceDiagram
	Alice->>+John: Hello John, how are you?
	John-->>-Alice: Great!
```

Will now render an inline SVG diagram of the sequence instead of the raw
`<code>` block.

Keeping diagrams as code in this way makes it significantly easier to
keep diagrams up to date with the documentation, and can make reviewing
changes to them easier.

The implementation takes advantage of the existing dependecy on node.js to
install and execute the mermaid cli tool that translates the various
diagram code into SVG. A timeout is added to execution to workaround an
issue where the cli tool [fails to terminate on error][fail-exit].
