Bidi-isolate and nowrap parser tags on Special:Version

The list of parser tags on Special:Version is quite hard
to read without bidirectional isolation on RTL wikis.
Its direction is RTL, and it mostly includes LTR tags,
but it may include RTL tags as well (such as <section>
localized in Hebrew; see I73364ac34ef7a24c48c09ec1f87102a6cbee8d8f ).

Bidi-isolation and nowrapping make the list more readable in both
RTL and LTR wikis.
