#29515: Escape/encode some HTML tags used in core docblocks

--------------------------+----------------------------
 In some function references, such as
 [http://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_media_embedded_in_content/
 get_media_embedded_in_content] we reference specific HTML tags like
 `<video>`, `<audio>`, `<embed>`, `<iframe>`, or others.

 And since markdown backslash escaping doesn't apply to greater- and less-
 than characters, we may need to encode them directly in the docblocks so
 they can be properly parsed for the Code Reference.
