Description

I justed noticed that Nextcloud's Vue components offer Markdown support. We might want to consider replacing vue-showdown with the NcRichText component.

Further investigation is required since I did not check if this is a drop-in replacement and all our use cases are supported.

Start by reviewing the current vue-showdown use cases and the NcRichText component documentation. Compare the supported Markdown behavior and determine whether NcRichText covers all existing uses. Done means the compatibility question is resolved and the replacement scope is clearly established.
