0bdcf415e4 Switch from pretty-simple to pretty-show for native output.
Update tests.

Reason:  it turns out that the native output generated by
pretty-simple isn't always readable by the native reader.
According to https://github.com/cdepillabout/pretty-simple/issues/99
it is not a design goal of the library that the rendered values
be readable using 'read'.  This makes it unsuitable for our
purposes.

pretty-show is a bit slower and it uses 4-space indents
(non-configurable), but it doesn't have this serious drawback.

c266734448 Use pretty-simple to format native output.
Previously we used our own homespun formatting.  But this
produces over-long lines that aren't ideal for diffs in tests.
Easier to use something off-the-shelf and standard.

Closes #7580.

Performance is slower by about a factor of 10, but this isn't
really a problem because native isn't suitable as a serialization
format. (For serialization you should use json, because the reader
is so much faster than native.)

992f77c17c Roll back part of of --shift-heading-level-by change.
With positive heading shifts, starting in 2.8 this option caused
metadata titles to be removed and changed to regular headings.
This behavior is incompatible with the old behavior of
`--base-header-level` and breaks old workflows, so with this
commit we are rolling back this change.

Now, there is an asymmetry in positive and negative heading
level shifts:

+ With positive shifts, the metadata title stays the same and
  does not get changed to a heading in the body.
+ With negative shifts, a heading can be converted into the
  metadata title.

I think this is a desirable combination of features, despite
the asymmetry.  One might, e.g., want to have a document
with level-1 section headigs, but render it to HTML with
level-2 headings, retaining the metadata title (which pandoc
will render as a level-1 heading with the default template).

Closes #5957.
Revises #5615.

88dc6fac5d Add --shift-heading-level-by option.
Deprecate --base-heading-level.

The new option does everything the old one does, but also
allows negative shifts.  It also promotes the document
metadata (if not null) to a level-1 heading with a +1 shift,
and demotes an initial level-1 heading to document metadata
with a -1 shift. This supports converting documents that
use an initial level-1 heading for the document title.

Closes #5615.
