404 errors in check-markdown

[erikbosch]

As of today the check in https://github.com/eclipse-kuksa/kuksa-actions/tree/main/check-markdown accepts 404 errors. That is not optimal, but depends on that the framework the action use currently have problem parsing internal links correctly, so there are quite a lot of false positives

This issue is a reminder to revisit/retest the action to check if we later could remove the 404 limitation

How to test if we can update this action

• Check if there is any release later than https://github.com/tcort/markdown-link-check/releases/tag/v3.12.2
• Run a check (locally) for kuksa-databroker and check if any false positive 404 errors still are reported

A possible work-around could be to skip checks on internal links, see https://github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/pull/1692

Similar limitation for links including %, like https://github.com/eclipse-kuksa/kuksa-python-sdk/pkgs/container/kuksa-python-sdk%2Fkuksa-client

Current solution, skip links starting with # or containing %. Keep this open for a while to check if framework is fixed
