okularmd no alt text

SUMMARY
markdown backend does not show alt text for links, and doesn't highlight as a
link unless there is a URL

Okular 20.04.2-bp153.1.31 for OpenSuse Leap 15.3 (I realise that this is an
_old_ version, but it is the current version in the current OpenSuse stable
release)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. create markdown file, with link with alt text
`[a test link with link and alt text](https://dummy-link.org.uk "the alt
text")`
2. create markdown link with alt text, without URL
`[a test link with link and alt text]( "the alt text")`
3. view in Okular or in Kate with okularmd configured as text/markdown embedded
service preference
4. hover mouse over each link

OBSERVED RESULT
the link with URL is highlighted, but doesn't show alt text
the link without URL isn't highlighted, and also doesn't show alt text

EXPECTED RESULT
both links are highlighted and alt text is visible on both
