Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/issues/507

At places, the rules file mentions markdown instead of Markdown. This is in regular sentences (2 examples below) and not in codeblocks.
If the community thinks that this warrants an update, I can raise a PR.

eg. "skip heading levels in a markdown document" or "Some markdown parsers generate anchors"

I think this is a mistake in the document and "Markdown" is preferred. If you'd like to send a PR, please review CONTRIBUTING.md first. Thank you!
