FR: add pure markdown template (output format `.md`) #169

A pure markdown template would be ideal if the "venue" for the cv is somewhere on the internet, where you can not (or should not) change the formatting: e.g. university or company websites.

ATM I create a HTML cv with vitae::markdowncv and call

pandoc -o cv.md -t markdown --atx-headers cv.html

However, this creates unnecessary tags and empty or nested lists in the resulting markdown, which I have to clean up manually.

Alternatively, one could also create a minimal HTML template (I currently convert the .md simply back to HTML with pandoc -o cv2.html cv.md)

Of course, I am happy to go through the above-described round trip, which is almost fuss-free, but I thought maybe someone else would benefit from it.
