Splits the description on @word tokens and renders mentions with a purple highlight in a live preview below the textarea. Uses split+map (not dangerouslySetInnerHTML) so it is XSS-safe. Closes anoopcodehack#279

Fixes #279
TaskModal renders the description in an editable textarea (no separate read mode), so this adds a live preview below the textarea that highlights
@usernamementions in purple. Usessplit(/(@\w+)/g)+ map (nodangerouslySetInnerHTML), so it's XSS-safe. JSX verified with esbuild.
