Although our documentation is rendered for the "in the box" docs by cmark-gfm, the upstream docs site (docs.npmjs.com) uses mdx, which is a much stricter parser. Update our docs generator site to ensure that mdx can parse our documentation as well, to ensure that we get fast feedback when it would fail.

Do we care about the original error being eaten here?

This is a great use case for the error cause proposal, but lacking that, you could make MarkdownError extend AggregateError instead, and preserve the original error that way?

@ljharb @wraithgar I don't think we care that much about this until we actually run into a problem making the docs pass/build. We can backlog some work to improve this & feel free to add changes.
