Hi! I am using this plugin to get line numbers in my book code samples, and I ran into an issue.

When faced with this kind of code:

```python
"""Usage:

whatever
"""
```

Markdown will be converted into this (by the highlight plugin?):

<span class="hljs-string">"""
Usage:
whatever
""""</span>

And then when your plugin tries to wrap lines in code-line spans, things break because opening/closing tags don't match anymore:

<span class="code-line"><span class="hljs-string">"""</span>
<span class="code-line">Usage:</span>
<span class="code-line">whatever</span>
<span class="code-line">""""</span></span>

The effect is that the whole thing is only counted as one line.

It doesn't look easy to fix, it would need to keep track of open spans and close them then reopen them in the next line?

Something like the following would be nice, if possible:

```yaml,no_copy
foo: bar
...

Something like the following, if possible:

```yaml,line_num_start=5
5: foo: bar
6: ...

Where the line numbers start at the specified value, 5, instead of 1.

Combined with #5 we could get something like:

```yaml,line_nums,line_num_start=5
5: foo: bar

Which would force line numbers to be rendered even though it is a one-line and start the line numbers at the specified value.

This is useful when you are dissecting a code-block line-by-line, for example, and want to make the context clearly known.

Something like the following, if possible:

```yaml,line_nums
foo: bar

Ideally that would render the line number even though it is a one-liner.

Output:
(the jsx code breaks line numbers and highlighting)
