A rest argument keeps an empty first element; a removal block keeps its neighbour; the Markdown converter reads paragraphs whole; Smart App Control on the Windows page (from dev 1083db946f05)

- A rest argument (a list's or a table's items) now strips exactly ONE
  leading bar -- the separator from what precedes it -- so a second one is
  an empty first element: a table with an empty header corner is written
  `@table |` then ` | Maskulinum | ...`. Before, every leading bar was
  dropped and such a header row shifted one column left. New shipped suite
  tst/rest_test.sh.
- Text written hard against a closing ]# (a period, a letter) is no longer
  removed with the block; a following space or line break still is.
- sks/tns/md_to_sks.py converts inline Markdown per paragraph, so emphasis
  that wraps is converted and not mis-paired; bold may contain italic;
  tables are unnumbered; links to sibling .md files converted alongside
  become links to their html pages; the arrow becomes @rightarrow@.
- doc/install/windows_source_install.md: Smart App Control must be off --
  it blocks MSYS2's unsigned toolchain, and its Evaluation state turns
  itself on later.
