Issue:
ordered list issue
Hello :)

I encountered a probleme markdownifying ordered lists:

given `html = '<ol>\n<li>a</li>\n<li>b</li>\n<li>c</li>\n</ol>'`

the ol node list is: `['\n', <li>w</li>, '\n', <li>t</li>, '\n', <li>f</li>, '\n']`

as `bullet = '%s.' % (parent.index(el) + 1)`,

the result is:

```
: markdownify(html)
: ' 2. a\n 4. b\n 6. c\n '
```
<=>
```
 2. a
 4. b
 6. c
```

I could preprocess my html input before passing it to markdonify but I'm affraid to loose "meaningfull linebreaks" if such things even exist ^^
I think this might be handled in the library, what do you think?

Thank you !
