```
Surround selection with backticks in Rust, C, and C++ comments (#58674)

Typing a backtick over selected text in Rust, C, and C++ comments
replaced the selection instead of wrapping it. Markdown already supports
this via its backtick bracket pair.

Add a backtick bracket pair for these languages:
  - `surround = true` wraps selections in backticks
  - `close = false` avoids auto-closing lone backticks
  - `not_in = ["string"]` enables it in comments but not strings

Closes #58538

Release Notes:
