Languages with special characters cause inconsistent behavior in code blocks

Bug graveyard
1

Steps to reproduce

Create a code block, and set the highlighting language to something with special characters:

```😎cool😋language❤with💎special🔠characters👽
  // code
```

Expected result

I expected to see the code block in the preview to get the corresponding class name language-😎cool😋language❤with💎special🔠characters👽

Actual result

Instead, inconsistent class names are seen. The <pre> gets class=" language-none", while the <code> gets both the expected class but also language-none, as shown:
