## Message

```
markdown_preview: Fix not re-rendering issue when editing by agent (#50583)

Closes #47900 

## Root cause

The current markdown preview only re-renders on `EditorEvent::Edited,
DirtyChanged, ExcerptsEdited`, but agent edits are implemented via
[`buffer.edit()`](https://github.com/dongdong867/zed/blob/eb3f92708b6dc67bb534c1c44a200c0cb5c4997b/crates/agent/src/edit_agent.rs#L375)
which does not guaranty to emit the `EditorEvent::Edited` event. Causing
the markdown preview stuck on the last received parsed markdown.

## Applied fix

Subscribing to `EditorEvent::BufferEdited` when initializing the
markdown preview view. This will cause the view to update when received
`BufferEdited` event including agent edits to the file.
