Description
In a docx file, I have a table on contents inserted, but when the conversion is done, the anchors that are created are broken.
Example:
Anchor from table of contents:
[Overview 2](#_Toc189551404)
Heading that the anchor should link to:
# Overview

Research direction
No source file or test is named in the issue. Reproduce the DOCX table-of-contents conversion, then trace how the _Toc189551404 anchor and Overview heading are generated; done means the converted table-of-contents link resolves to its heading and a regression test covers the case.
