Using pandoc as the Markdown engine cause some minor side effects as pandoc includes main <para> tags for almost everything. Original Markdown support approach removes those main tags, but it caused some inconsistencies when that tag is not the main one, like: <something>..</something> <para>...</para>
As kernel-doc was already including a <para> tag, it causes the presence of double <para> tags (<para><para>), which is not supported by DocBook spec.
Html target gets away with it, so it causes no harm, although other targets might not be so lucky (pdf as example).
We're now delegating the inclusion of the main <para> tag to pandoc only, as it knows when it's necessary or not.
That behavior causes a corner case, the only situation where we're certainly that <para> is not needed, which is the <refpurpose> content. For those cases, we're using a $output_markdown_nopara = 1 control var.
