/**
 * Convert common LLM-style Markdown to WhatsApp's own formatting dialect.
 *
 * WhatsApp uses a subset with different sigils:
 *   *bold*     _italic_     ~strike~     ```code```
 *
 * LLMs emit Markdown by default (`**bold**`, `# Header`, `- item`, `[t](u)`).
 * This helper rewrites those to the WhatsApp form so answers render correctly
 * in-app instead of showing literal `**` around words. Emojis + URLs pass
 * through (WhatsApp linkifies URLs automatically).
 *
 * Complementary to `stripMarkdown` in `./text.ts` (which strips everything for
 * log / trace destinations). Use this one when the string is heading to a
 * `reply.text(...)` — the string a real user will see.
