Missing Liquid function newline_to_br

[richard-browne]

Scriban seems to be missing Liquid functions such as 'escape' and 'newline_to_br'. I know there is eg 'html.escape', but when using ParseLiquid() compatibility mode, I think one would reasonably expect the standard Liquid functions to work?

I figured out that I need to use LiquidTemplateContext with ParseLiquid(). Then most of the liquid functions are defined. However, newline_to_br is still missing. Please consider adding it. Even ignoring liquid compatibility, the html.newline_to_br filter is a missing feature for scriban.

PR Welcome, personally to sparetime left and little interest in better supporting Liquid in Scriban (Liquid in Scriban is more considered as a transition but I would not recommend to use Scriban for a Liquid syntax.runtime if you really want 100% compatibility)

Ok but ignoring Liquid.. as a feature request a html.newline_to_br function is missing for the main language.
