Description

Possibly related to #426

Some Mastodon clients (I.e. Tusky for Android) render markdown in the toots. This is especially useful for tech heavy instances where code snippets are shared.

I believe it would be a great (optional?) feature for Ice Cubes too, despite markdown net being officially supported by Mastodon itself.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the related issue #426 and the existing Mastodon toot rendering entry points in Ice Cubes. Define the supported Markdown scope and optional behavior, then verify that toot code snippets and other intended Markdown render correctly without changing plain-text posts.
