Add support for latex formulas

Latex formulas are not rendering, I would like them to be rendered please add support for such formulas

Some markdown features are not rendering yet: strikethrough, bold + italic, and checklists. Also, there is no syntax highlighting. Please add the programming language name displayed at the top of code blocks.

Thanks for the detailed list! You are right on every point. The chat view uses a small hand-written Markdown renderer, and it does not handle any of these yet.

Planned for the next release (v0.4.4):

• Strikethrough (~~text~~), bold + italic (***text***) and task lists (- [ ] / - [x])
• Code blocks: the language name shown at the top, plus syntax highlighting for common languages
• LaTeX: inline $...$ and display $$...$$ / \[...\], rendered with KaTeX. It only loads when a reply actually contains a formula, so normal chats stay fast. Plain dollar amounts like $5 or $PATH will not be treated as math.

I will reply here when it ships.

All of it is in v0.4.4:

• LaTeX: inline $...$ / \(...\) and display $$...$$ / \[...\], multi-line blocks included, rendered with KaTeX. It only loads when a reply contains a formula. Plain dollar amounts like $5 or $PATH stay as text.
• Code blocks: the language name at the top, and syntax highlighting for about thirty common languages, in both dark and light themes.
• Strikethrough, bold + italic and task lists.

The same works in the file viewer preview. The Markdown editor now typesets math too, and hides the ``` fences when the cursor is elsewhere.

I also added you to the community contributors in the README and thanked you in the release notes. Thanks for the careful list; it made the chat view a lot better.
