Footnote support would be nice #2142

Description

@rotdrop

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Trying to convert some Dokuwiki pages to NC collectives I'm missing the support for Footnotes.

Describe the solution you'd like
Support the footnote-syntax as described here:
https://www.markdownguide.org/extended-syntax#footnotes

There is an addon package for markdown-it:
https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it-footnote

but just adding this would of course not be enough. The editor and also the Collectives app would need to add some display and UI sugar to make the footnotes usable.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Don't use NC Collectives

    Any update on this? I would like to use markdown created with hedgedoc in nextcloud, but while the former already supports footnotes, the latter doesn't.
