Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it
A word (TODO) listed in the reject.txt file is being flagged as an error despite being surrounded by vale off and vale on comments in a Markdown file.
The issue appears to occur if the word appears on the same line as a bold or italicized word.
ex:
*Note*: <!-- vale off -->TODO<!-- vale on -->
This is also flagged:
**Note**: <!-- vale off -->TODO<!-- vale on -->
as are these:
_Note_: <!-- vale off -->TODO<!-- vale on -->
__Note__: <!-- vale off -->TODO<!-- vale on -->
However this works as expected:
Note: This works as expected <!-- vale off -->TODO<!-- vale on -->

Possibly related to issues #340 & #878 however those were different enough that I decided to open an issue.
