Rustdoc table row highlighting for even lines and code highlighting match

[DanielEScherzer]

Code

/// Some documentation
///
/// | Heading |
/// | - |
/// | Before `Foo` after |
/// | Before `Bar` after |
fn main() {
    println!("Hello, world!");
}

Reproduction Steps

cargo doc

Expected Outcome

Table rows with code blocks have the code block highlighted in a way to render them separately from normal text

Actual Output

Even numbered rows in tables have the same background color as the code blocks. Relevant CSS (first selector includes other targets omitted for simplicity, both include other rules)

.docblock code, {
    background-color: var(--code-block-background-color);
}
.docblock table tbody tr:nth-child(2n) {
	background: var(--table-alt-row-background-color);
}
--table-alt-row-background-color: #f5f5f5;
--code-block-background-color: #f5f5f5;

Rendered result:
