Use of markdown in snap metadata (summary / description)

Can we please remove the support for triple-backticks and titled URLs, until we’ve been able to agree on them?

They both look very ugly on the terminal unless parsed and rendered in some way (links might not have a good way of dealing with them across all supported terminals, so they’d always look ugly).

Gustavo’s original proposal had the enormous advantage of not needing any work for things to look alright on the terminal. We could opportunistically add support for things, but didn’t have to. With the latest additions, unless we do something, it’s going to look ugly.

Please, let’s drop support for things we haven’t agreed to, until we’ve been able to discuss it more?

Thank you.
