Wrong formatting of markdown headers

[rw1nkler]

The markdown headers from a Doxygen documentation are converted into italic. Probably they should have more distinctive formatting

Doxygen output:

Sphinx output:

Raw HTML:

<em>II. Lists </em>

Example

Source code: https://github.com/rw1nkler/breathe-tests

How to reproduce:

git clone https://github.com/rw1nkler/breathe-tests
cd breathe-tests/docs/
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
make html
make firefox/sphinx

Which version of Breathe and Sphinx do you use? When I try your project in the newest versions I only get "This is a detailed description.". From a brief scan it looks like Breathe doesn't support the sectioning XML that gets generated (sect1, sect2, etc.). See e.g., https://github.com/michaeljones/breathe/blob/master/breathe/renderer/sphinxrenderer.py#L1148.

It seems that this piece of code is not related to the problem. I set the breakpoint there, and the method was not invoked.

I figured out that this is an unsupported feature: https://github.com/michaeljones/breathe/blob/master/breathe/renderer/sphinxrenderer.py#L1083 How complicated would It be to provide that support?
