Bring to Word & Excel

As per request by this reddit comment, we might want to evaluate bringing PPTypst to Word & Excel as they use a similar JS API.

However, in Word my gut feeling is that it'd be hard to integrate into the normal text flow as we paste shape objects, not regular text objects. So I'm not sure if for Word it makes that much sense. For Excel maybe more, but then why Excel? 😅

Yeah, for normal equations, this probably would be unnecessary in Word since the native equations fare better with the normal inline text flow. This might show its value once support for packages like Fletcher or CeTZ is there.

For Excel, just pasting images could work, but the same could be said of PowerPoint. I sometimes add context to Excel files as to why a calculation is that way usually with equations.

Yeah true, with support for external packages, this would make this question completely different. Right now, I'd like to concentrate on other issues first (and also other projects currently), but I keep this proposal in the back of my head.
