Use full path for images to avoid rst2pdf 'Missing image file' error

[wombelix]

Images added in a Post / Page will not be added to the PDF, rst2pdf can't find the image due to the relative path and will raise a Missing image file error. The PDF will be generated, but without the image, a red cross is added instead.

Can be resolved by searching for images and replace {.*} (e.g. {static}) with the path to Pelican, ~/pelican/content in the following Example.

before:
..image:: {static}/images/picture.jpg

after:
..image:: ~/pelican/content/images/picture.jpg

This PR supports reStructuredText and Markdown.

@justinmayer can you help me to understand why build / Lint (pull_request) Failing after 2m — Lint fails? Under Details I only see Error: The log was not found. It may have been deleted based on retention settings..

[justinmayer]

I see the following:

Run actions/setup-python@v2
Version 3.6 was not found in the local cache
Error: Version 3.6 with arch x64 not found
The list of all available versions can be found here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/actions/python-versions/main/versions-manifest.json

I imagine the problem is that Python 3.6 is no longer supported, but I can't say for certain. I think the best course of action is to remove Python 3.6 from the test matrix and see whether the problem persists.

I dropped Python 3.6 from the test matrix via 5f26b2b, which seems to have resolved that particular problem.

@wombelix: I have fixed multiple issues, which I believe will address the errors seen here in your PR. Can you rebase this branch on main?

Thanks a lot, looks better but still one error in the pre-commit.ci:

    => error
    remote: HTTP Basic: Access denied. The provided password or token is incorrect or your account has 2FA enabled and you must use a personal access token instead of a password. See https://gitlab.com/help/topics/git/troubleshooting_git#error-on-git-fetch-http-basic-access-denied
    fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://gitlab.com/pycqa/flake8.git/'

That pre-commit.ci problem seems to be because the Flake8 project moved from GitLab to GitHub. We can safely ignore that error.

Side note: I am increasingly unconvinced that pre-commit.ci provides enough value and may decide to remove it entirely. As for Flake8, I am displeased with how that project is managed, and I would never use it again for any new projects. I may replace it across-the-board with Ruff.
