Description
## What problem does this solve or what need does it fill?
superlinter handles a ton of different languages. We don't need that, and swapping to a simpler, purpose-built tool would reduce churn (e.g. #18320) and may improve performance.
## What solution would you like?
https://github.com/akiomik/mado is written in Rust (so we can easily help maintain it), and is advertised as being much faster.
## What alternative(s) have you considered?
Find some other markdown linter.
#8471 tried this with `markdownlint-cli2-action`, which stalled out.
## Additional context
The `mado` author's [Github profile](https://github.com/akiomik) lists them as a bird lover.
