    Description

      According to `https://developer.mozilla.org/de/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/template_strings` multiline template strings are valid. Qt Creator JS Editor does not highlight these strings.

      I would expect the JS Editor highlights the template strings as also variable references insight these template strings.

      this works
      ```
      var tpl = `hello ${hello}`
      ```

      this fails
      ```
      var tpl = `
      hello ${hello}
      `
      ```

      The closing ``` is not recognised and all text beyond is coloured as comment text.
