Support for HTML video tag

About this issue

• Briefly describe the issue
  The library does not render HTML tags (or at least the video tag). Would it be possible to add the support ?
• How can the issue be reproduced / sample code

Sample MD:

### Learned Belaying: It’s About Trust

A significant skill I’ve recently learned is belaying, Managing the rope while my partner ascends requires focus and responsibility, and knowing that they rely on me for their safety. This trust builds our teamwork and gives me confidence as a climber.

Hi @mikepenz, do you have any plan to implement this feature?

[mikepenz]

Good day @binishmatheww

Currently, this feature is not yet planned. Especially as the video tag is a HTML tag and not directly parsed by the markdown library as I can see here:

• https://github.com/JetBrains/markdown/blob/master/src/commonMain/kotlin/org/intellij/markdown/MarkdownElementTypes.kt
• https://github.com/JetBrains/markdown/blob/master/src/commonMain/kotlin/org/intellij/markdown/MarkdownTokenTypes.kt

It probably is possible to do that with some additional custom handling for html tags.
I'd be open to contributions for a new module offering such functionality.
