Automate porting from JavaScript

[alexeyinkin]

I understand that this is a port from https://highlightjs.org

I guess the port was automated to some extent, because language files contain the comment:

// GENERATED CODE - DO NOT MODIFY BY HAND

This package now has quite a number of bugs that are not reproducible with the original Highlight.js, like

• Number sign (#) breaks java highlighting #36
• Multiline string literal breaks java highlighting #37

Also I can see no progress on older issues.

Can you please share the process of this porting so anyone can fast-forward the changes in Highlight.js? These then can be contributed here or implemented in a fork. This would solve most of the problems.

Or share any hints if the port was manual.
