MDXTag Syntax Error on empty anchor tags

See original GitHub issue

I’ve been using mdx via the docz project and I was going to add a page for our changelog on a monorepo project that gets generated by lerna, but it appears that the Markdown file generated is not parseable by mdx.

Syntax Error: SyntaxError: /Users/wellingtoncordeiro/Documents/projects/my-proj/CHANGELOG.md: Expected corresponding JSX closing tag for <MDXTag> (24:0)

 @ ./docs/changelog.mdx 9:0-40 22:25-34

Example MD that broke when parsed.

### Bug Fixes

This may well be a problem with the Markdown that Lerna/commitizen generates and if so I can report upstream but it seems weird to break on the tag.

I’ll close this issue for now because we haven’t found out how to reproduce it in mdx, only docz, so it should be tracked there.
