/**
* Inline text rendering for guide blocks.
*
* A guide stores its text as a RESTRICTED Markdown subset - bold, italic,
* inline code, links, line breaks - and nothing else. This turns that into
* HTML.
*
* ESCAPE FIRST, THEN FORMAT. The order is the whole security model: every
* angle bracket and ampersand becomes an entity before any pattern is applied,
* so no markup an author pasted can survive into the DOM. There is no path here
* that emits a tag the code below did not write itself.
*
* The restriction is not only about safety. Pasted rich text carries fonts and
* hardcoded colours, which then fight the theme - black text on a dark
* background, and nobody can say why. Emphasis is semantic; the stylesheet
* decides how it looks. That is what makes dark mode work without an author
* thinking about it, and why a guide written next year still matches one
* written today.
