To support [custom html highlight](https://github.com/highlightjs/highlight.js#custom-usage) and configurable [highlightjs global options](https://highlightjs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#configure), seems some additional plugin api are required.

It’s that pr welecome? I already did some work in my [fork repo](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/compare/main...hawm:discourse:add-flexible-highlight-api)
