Prohibit parsing<>tags in markdown

[SuZhelevel6]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When I ported my MD document over, I encountered many problems and found that it was due to some<>tags being incorrectly parsed (in fact, I didn't want them to be parsed). This has caused some trouble.
The example is as follows：

| 参数              | 含义                                               |
| ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| -d                | 指定当前唯一通过 USB 连接的 Android 设备为命令目标 |
| -e                | 指定当前唯一运行的模拟器为命令目标                 |
| -s <serialNumber>| 指定相应 serialNumber 号的设备/模拟器为命令目标    |

An error will be reported at this time：[plugin:vite:vue] Element is missing end tag.

Although it can be solved by :| -s `<serialNumber>`|  ,

Describe the solution you'd like

I think simply prohibit parsing<>in the table， is the simplest and most effective approach.I want to know how to disable parsing in a table.

Because I hope that documents that can be parsed normally in MD software such as Typora can be easily ported. The parsing of tags has caused some trouble.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Perhaps globally banning the "Using Vue in Markdown" feature would also be effective?

I have seen a similar solution, but it is not what I expected（and not work）. Can it be changed to prohibit all Vue syntax parsing in the table?

  markdown: {
    config: (md) => {
      const render = md.render
      md.render = function (src, env) {
        return `<div v-pre>${render.call(this, src, env)}</div>`
      }
    },
    attrs: 'false',
    html: 'false',
  },

Any updates over this issue?

Currently using vitepress to render changelogs of a repository, and it has entries like:
Add <partition>/gpu support to fsgen

which leads to missing end tag.

I believe adding a frontmatter config to parse elements in a MD or not, would be a good idea.

我也遇到了同样的问题，可以尝试以下解决方案。
在 VitePress 读取 Markdown 文件后、解析前直接修改原始文本。这样可以确保所有尖括号都被正确转义，同时不影响代码块内容。

// .vitepress/config.js
import { defineConfig } from 'vitepress'
import fs from 'fs'
import path from 'path'
 
// 转义Markdown中的尖括号，但保留代码块内容
function escapeMarkdownBrackets(markdownContent) {
  // 正则表达式模式：匹配代码块
  const codeBlockPattern = /```[\s\S]*?```|`[\s\S]*?`/g
  
  // 临时替换代码块为占位符
  const codeBlocks = []
  const contentWithoutCodeBlocks = markdownContent.replace(codeBlockPattern, (match) => {
    codeBlocks.push(match)
    return `__CODE_BLOCK_${codeBlocks.length - 1}__`
  })
  
  // 转义普通文本中的尖括号
  const escapedContent = contentWithoutCodeBlocks
    .replace(/</g, '&lt;')
    .replace(/>/g, '&gt;')
  
  // 恢复代码块内容
  return escapedContent.replace(/__CODE_BLOCK_(\d+)__/g, (match, index) => {
    return codeBlocks[index]
  })
}
 
// Vite插件：在Markdown文件被处理前转义尖括号
const markdownBracketEscaper = {
  name: 'markdown-bracket-escaper',
  enforce: 'pre',
  async transform(code, id) {
    // 只处理Markdown文件
    if (!id.endsWith('.md')) return null
    
    try {
      // 读取原始文件内容
      const rawContent = await fs.promises.readFile(id, 'utf-8')
      // 转义尖括号
      const escapedContent = escapeMarkdownBrackets(rawContent)
      return escapedContent
    } catch (err) {
      console.error('Error processing Markdown file:', err)
      return code
    }
  }
}
 
export default defineConfig({
  markdown: {
    config: (md) => {
      // 保留你的其他配置...
      md.set({
        html: true,
        breaks: true,
        linkify: true
      })
      
      // 自定义加粗文本的渲染
      md.renderer.rules.strong_open = () => '<strong class="font-bold">'
      md.renderer.rules.strong_close = () => '</strong>'
      
      // 自定义斜体文本的渲染
      md.renderer.rules.em_open = () => '<em class="italic">'
      md.renderer.rules.em_close = () => '</em>'
      
      // 添加你的其他自定义规则...
    }
  },
  
  // 添加Vite插件
  vite: {
    plugins: [markdownBracketEscaper]
  }
})

解决方案说明
这个方案的工作原理是：

1、预处理 Markdown 文件：在 VitePress 解析 Markdown 文件之前，先对其进行处理
2、临时替换代码块：使用正则表达式识别并临时替换代码块内容
3、转义普通文本：对替换后的文本进行全局转义，将 < 和 > 转换为 < 和 >
4、恢复代码块：将临时替换的代码块恢复为原始内容
