Description
Hi guys, I discovered serious blocker related with Text on Android. I’ve translated strings with % and markdown i.e. “Perfect! 100% bold” I try to show it by using:
Text(.init(text))Text(LocalizedStringKey(stringLiteral = text))on iOS on both cases result is correct (1st screenshot).
But on Android with solution 1 markdowns are not working (2nd screenshot) and when we use LocalizedStringKey markdowns are supported correctly but we have double % (3rd screenshot) <- probably LocalizedStringKey is escaping %.
Could you please try to fix it somehow to make consistent with iOS behavior?
Without % Text is created correctly. Replace by FULLWIDTH PERCENT SIGN": ％ helps.
The problem is probably somewhere here: https://github.com/skiptools/skip-foundation/blob/main/Sources/SkipFoundation/AttributedString.swift

Research direction
Start with Sources/SkipFoundation/AttributedString.swift, then reproduce the reported strings using Text and LocalizedStringKey on Android and compare them with the iOS behavior described in the issue. Done means markdown renders correctly and a literal percent appears once for both approaches, matching the expected iOS behavior.
