@roomote this doesn't work - the tables don't render at all. Can you try writing a test that validates that your fix works?

Thanks for the feedback @mrubens! You're absolutely right - I'll investigate why the tables aren't rendering and write a test to validate the fix. Let me check the implementation and get this working properly. I'll update this comment with my findings and solution.

- Removed webview-ui/src/__mocks__/remark-gfm.ts that was blocking GFM functionality
- Updated webview-ui/jest.config.cjs to stop mapping remark-gfm to the mock
- Added comprehensive Jest transformIgnorePatterns for ES modules
- Created tests to validate table rendering functionality
- Addresses GitHub comment on PR #4790 about tables not rendering

The root cause was a mock file that returned an empty function instead of
the real remark-gfm plugin, preventing GitHub Flavored Markdown features
including tables from working properly.
