Subject: [PATCH] fix: :bug: only remove qmd files in reference post render to
 fix md formatting issues (#1107)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Description

Removing the entire `reference/` folder post-render is problematic
because the `_sidebar.yml` file in this folder is referenced under
`metadata-files` in `_quarto.yml`. When this file is removed
post-render, it seems to disrupt Quarto's functionality in VS Code,
affecting its visual mode. As a result, formatting (including column
wrapping at length 72) doesn't work as expected.

Changing the post-render process to remove only `qmd` files resolves
this issue, since (as far as I understand) preserving `_sidebar.yml`
ensures that `_quarto.yml` remains valid and maintains an uninterrupted
visual mode.

Please check if this works for you locally by:

1. Go to this branch
2. Run `just build-website` (to get the `_sidebar.yml` back)
3. In an `md` or a `qmd` file, go to visual mode, save it, and go back
to source mode.

Is the formatting still OK after these steps for you as well? 🤞

Closes #1089
