Added a 'use_pygments' config option to CodeHilite.
Fixes #386. I'm doing this against my better judgement. The only reason is that I'm using the HTML format suggested by the HTML5 Spec and will simply not consider any alternate output. If a JavaScript library requires something else, to bad. I don't care. That library should support the format suggested by the spec or I'm not interested in it. If you want something else then you can create your own extension which does whatever you want.
