Bug description

When compiling QMD document with Typst, \otimes is mapped to the deprecated times.circle instead of times.o.

Steps to reproduce
---
format: typst
---

<!-- [typst]: Compiling quarto_mwe.typ to quarto_mwe.pdf...warning: `times.circle` is deprecated, use `times.o` instead
    ┌─ quarto_mwe.typ:424:10
    │
424 │ $ x times.circle y $
    │           ^^^^^^ -->
$$ x \otimes y $$

Actual behavior

Deprecation warning appears at compile time.

Expected behavior

\otimes should map to times.o.

Research direction

Start with the Quarto Typst math rendering path and trace how the \otimes symbol is mapped in the generated Typst output. Reproduce the QMD example, then verify that it emits times.o and compiles without the deprecation warning.
