Tables are not rendered

Describe the bug

A markdown table, rendered in Jupyter, does not get rendered in the jupyter-book output.

| Quantity            | Name               | Unit|
| ------------------ :| ----------------- :| -- :|
|  Length             |  millimeter        | mm  |
|  Time               |  nanosecond        | ns  |
|  Energy             |  Mega electron Volt| MeV |
|  Positron charge    |  eplus             |     |
|  Temperature        |  kelvin            | K   |
|  Amount of substance|  mole              | mol |
|  Luminous intensity |  candela           | cd  |
| Plane angle         |  radian            | rad |
|  Solid angle        |  steradian         | sr  |

Gets rendered as this:

$ jupyter book build mybook
ERROR ...

I should have a live example at some point soon, my GitHub-actions is broken (jupyter-book + conda worked beautifully, pushing to GitHub is not working)

PS: You can type juptyer book instead of jupyter-book; just like git does, the Jupyter command delegates to programs with dashes in the path. Might be more memorable for users, don’t know. 😃

Note: the GitHub parser does’t allow tables with spaces like that either, which is how I noticed. 😃

Unless you have other thoughts, I think this can be closed. Takeaway, the parser is a little picker than the Jupyter lab parser.
