feat(docs): add Vite Plugin to Remove .md Extensions from URLs

[yurisldk]

Description

This PR introduces a custom Vite plugin that removes .md file extensions from URLs during the build process. This fix addresses the common issue of 404 errors due to Markdown links containing .md extensions.

closes #1564

Motivation

In Astro and Vite projects, links to Markdown files often include the .md extension. This plugin automatically removes .md extensions from internal URLs, ensuring clean and functional links like /specifications/backend/api-response-format#users-for-authentication instead of /specifications/backend/api-response-format.md#users-for-authentication.

Benefits

• Automatically fixes broken links caused by .md extensions.
• Provides user-friendly URLs without .md.
• Seamlessly integrates into your Vite or Astro project.

This plugin ensures that all internal links remain functional and clean, improving both user experience and SEO.
