Description
## Feature request
#### What problem does this feature solve?
To cite the [Markdown Guide](https://www.markdownguide.org/extended-syntax/#footnotes):
> Footnotes allow you to add notes and references without cluttering the body of the document.
For instance, in docsified software manuals this would help with structuring the information given better: useful background information can be given and clearly linked with the main text, yet without making the main text too full of details.
#### What does the proposed API look like?
According to the [Markdown Guide](https://www.markdownguide.org/extended-syntax/#footnotes):
```md
A footnote[^1]
[^1] This is a footnote.
```
#### How should this be implemented in your opinion?
I'm not sure I understand this question in the context of this particular feature request.
One thing I notice it that docify authors might want to have control over the placement of footnotes: either at the end of a "page" or, alternatively, before the next same-level heading.
#### Are you willing to work on this yourself?
Unfortunately, I completely lack the necessary Javascript and markdown parsing experience to code this.
