Text formatting on About tab

Description text from the API for the CRN network is formatted in markdown.

We are able to basically preserve the listing etc, via the Shiny function verbatimTextOutput but I haven't figured out how to render it as nicer HTML text - i.e., the automatic conversion from markdown syntax to HTML is not something I've been able to figure out.

This was a comment from Jason so I'd like to implement this fix if possible.

Clunkiest functional fix will be to copy the text and format it in HTML for this application specifically, but this creates a duplication of the description text between the API and this application... but maybe that doesn't matter for an API that isn't documented or really being supported now...
