If the pandoc back-end is some flavor of Markdown, shouldn't it be
better named `ox-md-pandoc'?

BTW, when looking at Markdown formats known by Pandoc, there are:

- Pandoc markdown
- Pandoc markdown_github
- Pandoc markdown_mmd
- Pandoc markdown_phpextra
- Pandoc markdown_strict

Is the Pandoc back-end exporting the flavor known as "Pandoc markdown"?
