Summary description: Converting and rendering markdown documents inside TeX

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------


Documentation:

- Document the current limitations of the MikTeX distribution and TeX engines
  other than LuaTeX. (reported by @obskyr in #566 and by @viocha in #573,
  escalated upstream by @witiko in [miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630],
  documented by @witiko in #574 and [witiko/lt3luabridge#32][lt3luabridge-32])

  These are the current limitations:
  1. The filenames of your .tex files may not contain spaces, see also #573.
  2. If `-output-directory` is provided, it may not contain spaces and it won't be
     automatically detected by MikTeX, see also 
[miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630].

Housekeeping:

- Mark uses of the deprecated conditional functions `\regex_match:*` for
  removal after we have dropped support for TeX Live 2024 and earlier.

Deprecation:

- Undeprecate `\markdownOptionOutputDir`.
  (#566, [miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630], #574)

  Due to the lack of support for the automatic detection of `-output-directory`
  in MikTeX with TeX engines other than LuaTeX (see
  [miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630]), there are still genuine uses of this
  option. Therefore, it doesn't make sense to deprecate it.
