Problem
When a CSV file contains line breaks inside a cell, the generated Markdown table becomes corrupted after conversion.
This type of CSV file is reasonably common in real-world and enterprise datasets, and supporting this case improves the robustness of the conversion process.
Example CSV
In this case, the line break inside the quoted cell causes the Markdown table structure to break.
Solution
To address this issue, the CSV-to-Markdown conversion was updated to use pandas-based HTML conversion, consistent with the existing handling for xlsx and xls files.
By adopting pandas-based HTML conversion for CSV-to-Markdown processing, multiline cells are handled correctly and the table structure is preserved.
