Fixes #2205
The Zola footnote behavior is currently broken, as described by this issue: getzola/zola#1070 due to a problem with the underlying pulldown-cmark.
This change addresses the issue using javascript to rebuild the footnote output, per a community suggestion listed in the Zola issue linked above.
As a note, it seems like the underlying issues may have been alleviated and an update to Zola may be possible now: getzola/zola#2896. It might be best to try and push that issue forward ?
Current Behavior (with existing escaped brackets workaround)
Current Behavior (with current Zola footnotes output)
Updated Behavior (with working backlink)
