Describe the bug GH bot reads HTML codes and gets the issue matching the number.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Add GH bot to a room
Send a /html message with a HTML code. For example $ ($ sign). Element will render /html $ as $
GH bot returns issue #36

Expected behavior Bot should ignore these codes

All platforms

The bot is just looking at the plaintext body, which in your case is the same;

{
    "msgtype": "m.text",
    "format": "org.matrix.custom.html",
    "body": "&#36;",
    "formatted_body": "&#36;"
  }

It should be ignoring # with a & before it - unrelated to HTML markup.
