Research direction

Start by reviewing the markdown-table discussion linked from issue #116, especially the referenced comment in #36, then trace rich-cli's existing Markdown rendering entry point. Done means rich-cli renders Markdown tables consistently with Rich's table support and the behavior is covered by the project's relevant checks.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Since rich supports markdown tables, would it be possible for rich-cli to support them too?
