Fail with error when double-rendering text in markdownify/RenderString

This commit prevents the most commons case of infinite recursion in link render hooks when the `linkify` option is enabled (see below). This is always a user error, but getting a `stack overflow` (the current stack limit in Go is 1 GB on 64-bit, 250 MB on 32-bit) error isn't very helpful. This fix will not prevent all such errors, though, but we may do better once #9570 is in place.

So, these will fail:

```
<a href="{{ .Destination | safeURL }}" >{{ .Text | markdownify }}</a>
<a href="{{ .Destination | safeURL }}" >{{ .Text | .Page.RenderString }}</a>
```

`.Text` is already rendered to `HTML`. The above needs to be rewritten to:

```
<a href="{{ .Destination | safeURL }}" >{{ .Text | safeHTML }}</a>
<a href="{{ .Destination | safeURL }}" >{{ .Text | safeHTML }}</a>
```

Fixes #8959
