Markdown reader irregularity parsing tables in YAML metadata blocks

Hi:

* version: pandoc 2.1.3, duplicated on pandoc HEAD
* files: https://gist.github.com/rbdixon/490e2bc39be0b93efc2bc79ade5d497b

I put tables in YAML metadata blocks as multiline strings to aid 
integration of tools that generate Markdown that is then processed by 
Pandoc. I've been chasing an odd behavior that I've narrowed down to 
pandoc's paring of tables in YAML metadata blocks.

This example (test_passes.md) works:

---
table: |-
  Table: Title

  | A | B |
  |:--|:--|
  | A | B |
  | A | B |
  | A | B |

  x
...
Text

When I inspect the Pandoc JSON I see that it has parsed a table with a 
header and three rows. This example (test_fails.md) does not work:

---
table: |-
  Table: Title

  | A | B |
  |:--|:--|
  | A | B |
  | A | B |
  | A | B |
...
Text

The difference is the removal of "\nx\n" at the end of the multiline 
string. When I inspect the Pandoc JSON the last row of the table is split 
off into its own `Plain` stanza rather than being included, as expected, in 
the `Table` stanza.

Any advice on what I might be doing wrong here? Perhaps I'm abusing 
multiline strings and their markdown interpretation a bit.

Thanks,

Brad
