outstatic Support for .mdx files

As mentioned by this comment, .mdx files are not being fetched.

To make this work we'd need to update:

getDocumentBySlug to check for mdx files in case the md version is not available.
list.tsx
/edit-documet/index.tsx

I'm not entirely sure how the editor would handle .mdx files, so this might require some investigation.

Hi @Bowens20832 , thanks for stepping up!

I think there are a few steps to this issues, this is just an inital idea:

1 - Make .mdx the default file type for Outstatic, with fallback support for .md

2 - Allow react components that are inside mdx files to be rendered in the editor.

3 - Expand the editor to use custom react components

Let me know if any of this aspects interest you. We use https://tiptap.dev/ for the editor. Feel free to fork the repo and star playing. Check out our contribution guidelines. I am here to help!

@avitorio Yes to all of the above! I think I can handle everything you mentioned, plus a bunch more 😄

I have some ideas and improvements for Outstatic, and I think we could collobarate together..

Would it be okay for me to schedule a time to chat with you from your calendar on Pacy.co?

Is this feature prioritized? I absolutely adore Outstatic and think it has a lot of potential, but no .mdx support is the main thing stopping me from using it on actual projects.

Hey @dmarkbreiter yes it is. I have a solution almost ready for it but am just lacking the time to properly launch it. It may bring in some breaking changes and compatibility issues with older versions, so I think this will come in the next major update.

+1 this would be huge
