Document how to re-create the MyST Parser purely with markdown-it-py #348

Assigning myself since I was looking at this in my investigation about the parser and I think I can now take a stab on it :wink:

Well, actually I can not assign myself because I do not have permission, it seems, @choldgraf can you add me as an assignee? Thanks!

choldgraf commented 3 years ago

Done! Hmm I need to figure out what kinds of permissions to give the @executablebooks/ebpteam to allow this
