markdownlint rule mapping
Every markdownlint rule and the mdsmith rule that covers it, generated from the rule README front matter — the same data mdsmith init --from-markdownlint reads.
Each row pairs an mdsmith rule with the markdownlint rule or
rules it covers, ordered by mdsmith rule id. (partial)
marks a mapping that covers only part of the markdownlint
check. A markdownlint name follows its id when the two
differ.
The table is generated from the markdownlint: front matter
in each rule README. mdsmith init --from-markdownlint
reads the same data, so the table and the converter cannot
drift apart. mdsmith fix regenerates the table.
