grammars: Highlight markdown code spans in tables (#57506)

Resolves https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/57501

This diff fixes Markdown inline syntax highlighting inside pipe table
cells. The block Markdown parser represents table content as
`pipe_table_cell` nodes rather than `inline` nodes, so Zed’s existing
`markdown-inline` injection ran for paragraph text but skipped code
spans inside tables.

With this change, table cells also inject `markdown-inline`, allowing
existing inline highlighting to handle code spans consistently between
paragraph text and table cells.
