Steps to reproduce

1. Post a link within code fences

   ```
   line of log with some https://example.org/to/some/api/or/so
   ```
   

2. Watch link preview getting generated

Expected behaviour

Code fences are usually used to post either code or lines of logs to be verbatim and/or easy to copy. Especially links in logs are really not meant to be visited in the browser.

I would skip it similarly for inline code blocks like

Text with `inline code where I would not want any https://example.link` to be previewed.

In fact elsewhere, like here on GitHub I use code blocks and fences for links explicitly to avoid them being clickable, reduce the chance that bots and crawlers (try to) follow it etc.

Actual behaviour

It does generate a preview. E.g. I posted a webserver log line about a failing API call to the Collabora Online CODE server, and the requests for the preview generation produced more errors, spamming the logs 😄.

If some library is used for Markdown code block/fence interpretation, I hope there is a way to hook inside and flag those tags from being parsed by the URL preview generator. Or maybe the latter can jump over <code> and <pre> tags afterwards, if it parses the resulting HTML.
