markdown_preview: Fix markdown tables taking up the full width of the parent element (#43555)

Closes #39152

This PR fixes an issue where we would render Markdown tables full width
based on their container size. We now render tables based on their
content min size, meaning you are still allowed to make the table render
as it was before by making the columns `w_full`.

I had to change the `div()` to `v_flex().items_start()` because this
introduced a weird displaying behavior of the outside table border,
because the grid container was not shrinking due to It was always taking
up the full width of their container.
