Fix spurious console log errors (Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token o in JSON at position 1)

[chrisglein]

On the console you'll see a lot of errors like this:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token o in JSON at position 1

The reason for that can be found here:
PrismJS/prism#1303
This PR applies the recommended fix for that thread and also tried with this PR: #32

The fix is to add a prism-config.js that sets
disableWorkerMessageHandler: true

Fixes #12

It didn't help me. I still get an error. Are you sure it works?

It worked for me? How did you test it?
It should be the same as the fix suggested here (but reduced): #32

[KonstantinZhukovskij]

Done in exactly the same way, in the debug mode there is still an error.

Looks like the misunderstanding of how to test the patch was answered here: #32 (comment)

I accepted the invite, thanks. Happy to try to help. For npm, this is me.

@chrisglein invited you as a maintainer, let me know if it didnt go through

Does it mean that the library has an active maintainer?

As someone who's using the module, I'll try to help out. But there's a lot on my plate.

I created a PR, but someone needs to merge it and release a new version.

Anyway, I created a fork and published it to NPM with my fix included. This is the only way to handle unmaintained projects.
