We've been stuck on Omd 1 for a long time. While we could upgrade to the newer Omd version, it does not seem very actively maintained, and since we'd have to rewrite anyway it seems like a good opportunity to switch to the newer Cmarkit library which has some nice additional features. A best effort attempt has been made to preserve `sail --doc` and `sail --latex` features, but there may be small changes in functionality. This does require increasing our minimum OCaml version to 4.14+

We've been stuck on Omd 1 for a long time. While we could upgrade to the newer Omd version, it does not seem very actively maintained, and since we'd have to rewrite all our code using it anyway it seems like a good opportunity to switch to the newer Cmarkit library which has some nice additional features and sticks closely to the CommonMark spec.
A best effort attempt has been made to preserve
sail --docandsail --latexfeatures, but there may be small changes in functionality and appearance.This does require increasing our minimum OCaml version to 4.14+, but that might be overdue at this point (and we might also just want to require OCaml 5 soon anyway).
