Block rule for Wikidot definition lists written with the : key : value syntax.
Each item starts at the beginning of a line with a COLON, followed by
mandatory whitespace, the key (term), a second COLON, and then the value
(definition). Multiple consecutive items form a single <dl> block.
: Apple : Afruitthatgrowsontrees. : Banana : Ayellowcurvedfruit.
Key parsing details:
Whitespace after the first colon is required (": key" not ":key").
The key portion supports inline markup (bold, links, etc.).
The value ends at the next newline or the end of the document.
Explicit line continuations ( _) can extend a value across source lines.
