albertony 0f3aa17fb6 build: improve backend docs autogenerated marker line
Replace custom rem hugo shortcode template with HTML comment. HTML comments are now
allowed in Hugo without enabling unsafe HTML parsing.

Improve the text in the comment: Remove unnecessary quoting, and avoid impression that
make backenddocs has to be run and results committed, since we have a lint check which
will then report error because we want to prevent manual changes in autogenerated sections.

Disable the markdownlint rule line-length on the autogenerated marker line.

Make the autogenerated marker detection a bit more robust.

See #8942 for more details.

# {{< icon "fa fa-archive" >}} Uptobox
This is a Backend for Uptobox file storage service. Uptobox is closer to a
one-click hoster than a traditional cloud storage provider and therefore not
suitable for long term storage.
Paths are specified as `remote:path`
Paths may be as deep as required, e.g. `remote:directory/subdirectory`.
## Configuration
To configure an Uptobox backend you'll need your personal api token. You'll find
it in your [account settings](https://uptobox.com/my_account).
Here is an example of how to make a remote called `remote` with the default setup.
First run:
```console
rclone config
```
This will guide you through an interactive setup process:
```text
Current remotes:
Name Type
==== ====
TestUptobox uptobox
e) Edit existing remote
n) New remote
d) Delete remote
r) Rename remote
c) Copy remote
s) Set configuration password
q) Quit config
e/n/d/r/c/s/q> n
name> uptobox
Type of storage to configure.
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
Choose a number from below, or type in your own value
[...]
37 / Uptobox
\ "uptobox"
[...]
Storage> uptobox
** See help for uptobox backend at: https://rclone.org/uptobox/ **
Your API Key, get it from https://uptobox.com/my_account
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
api_key> xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Edit advanced config? (y/n)
y) Yes
n) No (default)
y/n> n
Remote config
--------------------
[uptobox]
type = uptobox
api_key = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
--------------------
y) Yes this is OK (default)
e) Edit this remote
d) Delete this remote
y/e/d>
```
Once configured you can then use `rclone` like this (replace `remote` with the
name you gave your remote):
List directories in top level of your Uptobox
```console
rclone lsd remote:
```
List all the files in your Uptobox
```console
rclone ls remote:
```
To copy a local directory to an Uptobox directory called backup
```console
rclone copy /home/source remote:backup
```
### Modification times and hashes
Uptobox supports neither modified times nor checksums. All timestamps
will read as that set by `--default-time`.
### Restricted filename characters
In addition to the [default restricted characters set](/overview/#restricted-characters)
the following characters are also replaced:
| Character | Value | Replacement |
| --------- |:-----:|:-----------:|
| " | 0x22 | |
| ` | 0x41 | |
Invalid UTF-8 bytes will also be [replaced](/overview/#invalid-utf8),
as they can't be used in XML strings.
