fix: render the story prose instead of its Markdown source

The editable paragraphs showed the raw Markdown the model writes, so the story read as source rather than prose. Render each paragraph and swap to the source only while it is being edited, rendering again on blur, using the same Markdown engine the Markdown pane uses.
