Weird Bug: mermaid config option breaks OJS

Bug description

Just stumbled upon a weird bug. Maybe I'm missing something. Found this while working on a larger project. Managed to narrow down to a minimal example. I am just reporting my observation -- I didn't investigate further.

When I have config: ... option for mermaid code block, the OJS breaks.

Steps to reproduce

Run this simple test.qmd file

---
title: "Test"
date: "2026-08-10"
format: html
---

```{mermaid}
graph LR
    A --> B
```

```{ojs}
//| echo: true
x = 2
x ** 5
```

with quarto preview test.qmd.

Now run it with a config option in the mermaid block (everything else stays same)

---
title: "Test"
date: "2026-08-10"
format: html
---

```{mermaid}
---
config:
    look: handDrawn
---
graph LR
    A --> B
```

```{ojs}
//| echo: true
x = 2
x ** 5
```

In the second case, the ojs block stops executing -- it becomes just code.

Actual behavior

Left: Without, Right: With the mermaid option
(OJS breaks; although the mermaid option takes correct effect)

There's no error whatsoever.

Expected behavior

The OJS block shouldn't be affected by mermaid's option.
