Update pulldown-cmark to v0.13.0 to fix crash (#46267)
Hi Zed team thank you for the awesome editor!

I recently stumbled upon a markdown sequence that seems to cause a crash

```md
-	[	] -
\
-
```

*easier to read escape characters below

```rust
let crash_input = "-\t[\t] -\r\\\n-"
println!("{}", crash_input)
```

## how to reproduce

1. copy the markdown above
2. save the file
3. `[shift]` + `[cmd]` + `p` to open the command palette
4. select `markdown: open preview`
5. crash

I've confirmed that the issue is a bug in pulldown-cmark version 12, and
has been resolved in version
[v0.13.0](https://github.com/pulldown-cmark/pulldown-cmark/releases/tag/v0.13.0)
and specifically fixed in
https://github.com/pulldown-cmark/pulldown-cmark/pull/1017

this PR simply bumps the pulldown-cmark version in zed which resolves
the crash on my local machine.

Licensing

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
