This removes the broken-link markdown checker. Unfortunately it is not compatible with the mdbook-spec plugin, which adds implicit link definitions for things like rules and std links. The link checker needs to run after the preprocessor, but there isn't a particularly good way to do that. Eventually this should be built-in to mdbook which is capable of doing that. We'll just need to be extra careful and diligent to avoid these.
The html link checker still runs, which runs after content generation.
