Quarto couldn't convert markdown with tables to PPT/PPTX format.
However, the conversion is working fine for docx/pdf/html.
Steps to reproduce
Example
---
title: "Tables"
format:
pdf: default
docx: default
pptx: default
---
| Col1 | Col2 | Col3 |
|------|------|------|
| A | B | C |
| E | F | G |

: My Caption {#tbl-letters}
Expected behavior
The markdown table should be converted in pptx format.
Actual behavior
Table is missing in the PPTX output format.
