Add table display support to documentation editor

[kazcw]

Initially just render tables that have been typed in the code editor in markdown. GUI style editing will be a follow on story.

The table plugin in lexical-react can be used as the primary reference; there is also a Vue port in lexical-vue, but it is out of date.

Refinement notes:

• this requires making our own markdown-table parser (we already use one for images).
• table editing is not part of this issue.

Ilya Bogdanov reports a new 🔴 DELAY for the provided date (2024-06-17):

Summary: There is 8 days delay in implementation of the Add table display support to documentation editor (#9970) task. It will cause 0 days delay for the delivery of this weekly plan.

2 days are weekends

Delay Cause: Underestimation because of lack of documentation in lexical-markdown. Initially chosen approach was slightly incorrect, and a lot of corner-cases in parsing make the implementation difficult.

Progress: Found issues with the current approach, because lexical-markdown does not apply transformers recursively after element transformers. Working on alternative solution It should be finished by 2024-06-21.

Progress: Implementation still has issues, trying different approach for text match transformer’s regexp. However, it leads to the reversed order of cells inside the single row, which requires refactoring. It should be finished by 2024-06-21.
