[FEATURE] Enhancement: Add a "Draft & Review" mode with a live Markdown editor before final publishing #188

Description

@Unnati1007

Feature Description
Introduce an optional "Intercept Mode" where the AI generates the blog but does not instantly publish it to social media or Dev.to. Instead, it saves it as a draft and presents the user with a live Markdown preview editor in the React Dashboard to review or tweak the content before clicking "Confirm & Publish."

Problem It Solves
Currently, the workflow is a "black box" where the AI generates the blog and instantly blasts it out to the internet. Sometimes AI hallucinates or generates phrasing the user doesn't like. Users need the ability to proofread the explanation, add their own personal touch, or fix formatting before their professional network on LinkedIn or Dev.to sees it.

Proposed Solution
Update the Chrome extension so users can choose "Draft" or "Auto-Publish".
If "Draft" is selected, the backend generates the blog but skips the share_to_platforms step.
Build a sleek split-screen Markdown editor in the React UI (using a library like react-markdown) where users can view their drafts, edit the raw markdown, and then hit a final POST /publish-blog endpoint to trigger the social sharing and Dev.to APIs.
Additional Context
This elevates the tool from a simple "bot" to a professional writing assistant, giving developers full control over their personal brand!
