Additions to RST simple tables (nim-lang#19859) made their parsing more restrictive, which can introduce problems with of some old nimforum posts, which have tables with sloppily aligned columns (like this one: nim-lang/nimforum#330 (comment)). Also this strictness contradicts to Markdown style of not getting in the way (ignoring errors). So this PR proposes a new strategy of dealing with errors: * In Markdown and legacy (old default) RstMarkdown we try to continue parsing, emitting only warnings * And only in pure RST mode we throw a error I expect that this strategy will be applied to more parts of markup code in the future.
