Fix Mermaid code blocks broken on dashboard feed (#36582)

Fix two bugs causing broken rendering of fenced code blocks (e.g. Mermaid
diagrams) in dashboard feed comments:

1. Truncation at 200 chars could cut mid-code-block, leaving an unclosed
   fence that produces a parse error. Add trimUnclosedCodeBlock() to strip
   the partial block after truncation.

2. The action content format "index|body" was parsed with SplitN(..., 3),
   splitting the comment body at its first "|" character. Mermaid syntax
   commonly uses "|" (e.g. "A -->|text| B"). Add GetIssueContentBody()
   which splits only on the first "|" and use it in the feed template.
