Encoded `<code>` tags in parameter docblocks

[johnbillion]

Example: ​https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/apply_filters/

The $value and $var parameters of this function contain `backticks` in their descriptions. These are converted to <code> tags, but these are being escaped on output and therefore appear on screen as <code>$tag</code>.

I think these are now displaying correctly?

That said, even though it appears resolved per comment 2 above for that use case, another instance of this same issue can be seen in the "changelog" section for get_post_type_labels():

• ​https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_post_type_labels/

The source code: ​https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.4/src/wp-includes/post.php#L1348

* @since 4.3.0 Added the `featured_image`, `set_featured_image`, `remove_featured_image`,
*              and `use_featured_image` labels.
* @since 4.4.0 Added the `insert_into_item`, `uploaded_to_this_item`, `filter_items_list`,
*              `items_list_navigation`, and `items_list` labels.

The rendered output does dot wrap the above in "code tags":

In 2282:

developer.wordpress.org: Allow use of 'code' tags in changelog descriptions.

Example: ​https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_taxonomy/

See r2206.
Fixes #1468.

Just to follow-up: the originally reported issue was fixed in [2206].

[2282] addressed what @netweb reported, which was a separate issue.
