Subject: Prefer RopeSlice to &Rope in helix_core::syntax

Pascal and I discussed this and we think it's generally better to
take a 'RopeSlice' rather than a '&Rope'. The code block rendering
function in the markdown component module is a good example for how
this can be useful: we can remove an allocation of a rope and instead
directly turn a '&str' into a 'RopeSlice' which is very cheap.

A change to prefer 'RopeSlice' to '&Rope' whenever the rope isn't
modified would be nice, but it would be a very large diff (around 500+
500-). Starting off with just the syntax functions seems like a nice
middle-ground, and we can remove a Rope allocation because of it.
