Context-based formatting popover #200
Description
To keep in line with our distraction-free design, but also to make the formatting easier to use, we should introduce a context-based formatting popover similar to what Medium.com has. Whenever you select text, the formatting options show:
Then when you bold the text, it would insert the **asterisks** around the selected word, or for links it would [insert the link tag and focus it on the url part](https://…).

There’s "a renderless rich-text editor for Vue.js" called tiptap which does what I described with the menu bubble:

Yes, that's a nice thing. However, on mobile devices, there is often a pop-up menu for "copy", "cut" etc. that conflicts with such a pop-up menu for formatting text. In the case of tiptap, I can't use the context-based formatting, because Android's pop-up menu overlays the editor's pop-up menu.
Just for the protocol: This issue is strongly related to #204.
