Looq 1.2: Live Rendering for Quick Look previews

Looq 1.2 adds Live Rendering. Edit a Markdown file, hit save, and the Quick Look preview updates on its own. No closing and reopening.

The key part: it doesn't flash. Code blocks keep their highlighting, Mermaid diagrams stay put, and only the parts you changed get re-rendered. Old content stays on screen until the new version is ready, then swaps in one frame.

Other changes in 1.2:

- Mermaid diagrams render with transparent backgrounds, so they blend with any theme

- Consistent spacing across all diagram types

Looq is a Quick Look extension for macOS. Select a file in Finder, press Space, get a full preview.
