Markdown files (.md) are treated as plain text and are not being rendered to HTML first before PDF conversion

[SjoerdV]

Steps to reproduce

1. Add a text file (markdown format) to Nextcloud Files
2. Add a flow to convert to PDF
3. Trigger the Flow

Expected behaviour

Markdown should be rendered first and than exported to pdf.

Actual behaviour

Markdown is not rendered and just exported to PDF as plain text.

We rely here on LibreOffice doing the right thing, and it interprets markdown as text at the moment. But I agree, interpreting markdown properly would be a nice.
