robinojwandChris Biscardi 94ce64470a markdown_preview: Independent font family and theme (#54003)
## Summary

Adds two user-facing settings that let the markdown preview render with
a font family and theme independent from the editor. Both are optional
and fall back to the editor defaults when unset.

```json
{
  "markdown_preview_font_family": "Georgia",
  "markdown_preview_theme": "Solarized Light"
}
```

## Details

- New `MarkdownFont::Preview` variant, used only by the preview surface.
- New `MarkdownStyle::themed_with_overrides()` that accepts explicit
`ThemeColors` and `SyntaxTheme` so the preview can render with a theme
other than the active editor theme. Existing `themed()` callers are
unchanged.
- The preview pane background adopts the chosen theme's
`editor_background`.
- Follows the pattern already used by `agent_ui_font_size` /
`agent_buffer_font_size`.

## Scope

Sizing-related changes (`markdown_preview_font_size`,
`markdown_preview_line_height`, typography tweaks, responsive max-width
container) were in an earlier revision of this PR and have been removed
per review feedback — they interact with the Cmd+/- zoom behavior in
ways that still need design work, and will land in a follow-up.

## Files Changed

- `crates/settings_content/src/theme.rs` — schema
- `crates/theme_settings/src/settings.rs` — runtime + accessor
- `crates/markdown/src/markdown.rs` — `MarkdownFont::Preview` +
`themed_with_overrides()`
- `crates/markdown_preview/src/markdown_preview_view.rs` — theme
resolution, style selection, background
- `crates/markdown_preview/Cargo.toml` — `theme` dependency
- `crates/settings/src/vscode_import.rs` — new fields in struct literal

Release Notes:

- Added `markdown_preview_font_family` and `markdown_preview_theme`
settings to customize the markdown preview independently from the
editor.

Licensing

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.

Zed is developed by Zed Industries, Inc., a for-profit company.

If you’d like to financially support the project, you can do so via GitHub Sponsors. Sponsorships go directly to Zed Industries and are used as general company revenue. There are no perks or entitlements associated with sponsorship.
