Ability to anchor to headers

So IMO everytime somebody does something like

## This is a header

It should generate a link such as this, using something similar to slugify:

<h2><a name="this-is-a-header"></a>This is a header

This way people can create for example a table of contents on a long post.

@abhinov2 No. Stop posting comments to random issues. Use the forum instead: https://community.nodebb.org

@psychobunny @pitaj Header anchors were removed from markdown-it for... reasons. I can't really recall right now.

Jon Schlinker's plugin does support it but markdown-it is a hard fork away, so we stick with it.

It is available as a plugin however: https://www.npmjs.com/package/markdown-it-anchor, potentially could add it to the markdown plugin.
