The issue can be reproduced as described in T278840. What
happens is that an (auto)clear is triggered and removes all
marks, but the cached values in `currentMarks` remain. The next
time the same marks are found, they are discarded and don't
show up, because the cache says they are already there, when
they are not.

Adds a custom class for matched brackets to allow better integration
with custom bracket styles. The brackets won't be bold in the 2017WTE.
Bold font might lead to misalignment there. See ticket.
Note: box-shadow seems to be supported for quite some time by all
relevant browsers

My previous patch Icbb1122 focused on the behavior of the
matchbrackets addon when the text is *edited*. This patch here
is about moving the cursor without changing the text. I
realized the addon re-draws everything every time the cursor
moves, even if the highlighted pair of brackets is still the
same. This triggers very expensive code in the CodeMirror lib.
I had a look at this expensive code, but did not found an easy
win. It just is what it is: an expensive re-draw. Instead I
introduced a caching layer that remembers the positions of the
previously highlighted brackets and bails out as early as
possible when nothing changed.
The biggest chunk of code is that "did something change?"
comparison. It looks expensive, but typically isn't. There are
typically only 2 elements in the array for a single
opening–closing pair. (Possibly more when there are multiple
text selections.) The elements in the two arrays are typically
in the same order. (Except the cursor is on the closing
bracket.) Which means the nested `every` → `for` loop will
typically be executed 2 times only – one time for each of the
2 elements.
I won't upload this change upstream because it is only relevant
together with our custom "in the middle" bracket highlighting.
With our customization we have many, many situations where the
highlighted brackets don't change. This (almost) doesn't happen
upstream.
