Release Markdown Midget v0.3.0-beta1 · FuncularLabs/MarkdownMidget

First 0.3.0 release (the alpha1 work was dogfooded internally, never published,
and is rolled up here).

Richer Register / Unregister dialogs for Windows integration, each with
minimalist diagrams so non-technical users can see what every option does.
- Register (all on by default): Move the download into the app folder
  (vs. copy), Add to Start menu, Add a Desktop shortcut, plus the
  existing Set as default. The original download location is remembered.
- Unregister (all optional): remove the Open With registration, restore a
  copy to where it was downloaded, remove the Start-menu entry, remove the
  Desktop shortcut, and remove the installed app-folder copy.
- Move installs to the app folder then relaunches from there and deletes
  the original download (via a --finish-move handoff, guarded by the
  unsaved-changes prompt so a restart can't drop edits).
Skip Spell Check in Code (View menu, WYSIWYG) — leaves code blocks and
inline code un-checked while still spell-checking prose, so identifiers,
keywords and snippets don't get flagged. On by default; remembered between
sessions. (Source view remains all-or-nothing — a WPF TextBox limitation.)
Spell-check on/off is now remembered between sessions.
ROADMAP.md — a living wishlist/roadmap. First entry: the
de-risk spike for owning the spell-check stack (custom dictionaries +
"Add to dictionary" via the Windows Spell Checking API), since WebView2
exposes no dictionary API.

Denser table styling. Square corners, a gray header row (darker than the
stripes), tighter cell padding (1px 6px), 12px text, and the first data row
is light (stripes start on row 2). Also fixed a latent bug where Nord's
!important logical-padding rules were silently overriding our cell padding —
tables now render at the intended density.

Win+arrow window management now behaves like Notepad / File Explorer. We
were intercepting Win+arrow and hand-rolling snap math, which was worse than
the OS (no snap-assist, poor multi-monitor/DPI handling). Removed the handler
entirely; the window is a standard resizable window, so native Windows Snap
just works.
