Improve ordered lists

Description

As of 0.1.2, ordered lists are not incremented in the raw markdown when Zensical Studio automatically repeats new items after pressing Enter.

What we end up with, is a list of all 1's, like so:

1. First
1. Second
1. Third

I assume that the Zensical team is aware as this behavior is even shown in an example in the official documentation.

Use Cases

Improving Zensical Studio's automatic repeating of ordered list items so that they are incremented correctly would make it easier to identify the number of an item at a glance (when viewing the raw markdown).
