👌 Improve parsing of nested amsmath

the previous logic was problematic for amsmath blocks nested in other blocs (such as blockquotes)

the parsing code now principally follows the logic in markdown_it/rules_block/fence.py,
except that:
(a) it allows for closing tag on same line as opening tag
(b) it does not allow for opening tag without closing tag (i.e. no auto-closing)
