Links are inserted when copy/pasting action build logs and code with embedded links

I was just trying to copy text out of an actions workflow, specifically these lines. Since I'm using OctoLinker the action name is linkified and the text that gets pasted into an issue shows up as:

- name: Set up .NET
        uses: https://github.com/actions/setup-dotnet/tree/v2.0.0v2.0.0
        with:
          dotnet-version: |
            3.1.417
            5.0.406
            6.0.201

instead of

      - name: Set up .NET
        uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v2.0.0
        with:
          dotnet-version: |
            3.1.417
            5.0.406
            6.0.201

Similarly I tried to copy text out of an Actions build log and that's also pasting incorrectly. OctoLinker doesn't run on these pages so the issue isn't related to that like the above one kind of is.

.NET SDKs installed:
  3.1.120 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
  3.1.202 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
  3.1.[30](https://github.com/xt0rted-test/setup-dotnet-test/runs/5973292245?check_suite_focus=true#step:2:30)2 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
  3.1.417 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
  5.0.104 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
  5.0.212 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
  5.0.303 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
  5.0.406 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
  6.0.201 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]

In this example the 4th line should actually be:

3.1.302 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]

👋 Hi @xt0rted, thanks for the report. Can you try a plaintext copy with ⌘ + Shift + V (Mac) or Ctrl + Shift + V (Windows/Linux)?

Pasting as plain text works fine. Had no idea that was a feature.
