Description
Expected behaviour
Opening a .md file in the Nextcloud iOS app renders it contents in the app.
Actual behaviour
Opening a .md file in the Nextcloud app asks the user to pick an app to open the file in. There's no way to render the markdown in the Nextcloud app.

Steps to reproduce
- Open a directory that contains a markdown file (*.md) in the Nextcloud iOS app
- Tap on the markdown file
Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?
Worked in the previous version, doesn't work anymore as of yesterday's update to 3.0.0.
iOS version
12.4.6
App version
3.0.0
Server configuration
Operating system: Lubuntu
Web server: nginx
Database: MariaDB
PHP version: 7.something I think
Nextcloud version: (see Nextcloud admin page) 18.0.4

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in the Nextcloud iOS app with a directory containing a .md file, using the reported iOS 12.4.6 and app version 3.0.0 details as context. No source file or test is named; the work is done when tapping a Markdown file renders its contents in the app instead of offering an external app picker.
