Update broadlink.markdown (#27420)

Browse Source 
* Update broadlink.markdown

Added clarifications for learning RF codes via broadlink_cli.  This includes clarification on how to resolve failure to learn RF frequency, and how to learn a single button press code vs a button hold code.

* Update broadlink.markdown

fixed spelling and missing code tags

* tiny style tweak

@ -629,26 +629,37 @@ Learning RF Frequency, press and hold the button to learn...
Press and hold a button on the remote.
You will know it succeeded when you see the following text:
```txt
Found RF Frequency - 1 of 2!
You can now let go of the button
Press enter to continue...
```
Press enter.
If the attempt fails, you will see the error:
```txt
RF Frequency not found
```
If a failure occurs, you may need to simply keep pressing the button during the `Learning RF Frequency` step, as some remotes appear to not continuously transmit when buttons are held.
After a success, do one of the following two options:
1. To learn a single button press RF code, press enter and follow the prompt:
```txt
To complete learning, single press the button you want to learn
```
Short press the button and you get the code:
```txt
Found RF Frequency - 2 of 2!

2. To learn a button hold RF code, hold the button you wish to learn for 1-2 seconds then immediately press enter.
* You will see the same prompts for a short press as shown above. You should see it return a different base64 code.
* Test the base64 code to ensure it performs the button 'hold' command as expected, rather than the button 'press' command.
* This might take some trial and error to get the hold timing right before hitting enter to scan for the code.
### Conversion of codes from other projects
For old/awkward devices another possibility is to try to get codes by using data gathered by the LIRC project.
