The `thanks` metadata is silently ignored in Typst format

I have:

• searched the issue tracker for similar issues
• installed the latest version of Quarto CLI
• formatted my issue following the Bug Reports guide

Bug description

When rendering a Quarto document with format: typst, the thanks content does not appear in the output PDF, while seeing superscript * on the title.

After investigating with keep-typ: true, it looks like Quarto passes the thanks value correctly into the generated .typ file, but the title block renders the footnote inside a place(float: true, scope: "parent") container. Typst does not currently render footnote contents correctly in that situation (typst/typst#5765)

This seems to make Quarto's documented thanks feature non-functional for Typst output.

Steps to reproduce

---
title: Test
thanks: "This should appear as a footnote"
format: typst
---

Hello.

Actual behavior

No footnote appears in the rendered PDF. The title is shown with a * marker.

Expected behavior

A footnote marked with * should appear at the bottom of the title page.
