add support for svelte 5

add support for svelte 5 by updating peer dependencies

To really support svelte 5 a refactor of the code should be done I think. I think that svelte 5 components now are classes and not functions. So if for instance rendering special parts of the markdown to SvelteComponents (which I think is brilliant) using tokenizers and renderers, we will need svelte 3 or 4 components, otherwise it will not work.

Thanks @RonB I will try it out

I think you can still use the old class syntax though, right? Just being able to try out Svelte 5 without removing this component would have great value.

Hi @RonB @memark I got back to finally trying this out on Svelte 5 app, and I can confirm even with Svelte 5, this pkg works.
So, this change is enough to make it work with Svelte 5 projects.

If we wanted a completely svelte 5 project, then there are some changes which need to be done, explicitly old deps need to be updated, and usage of createEventDispatcher need to be removed with a callback prop.

But for now, merging this change to be svelte 5 compatible should be good ?

cc @pablo-abc I would like to try out svelte 5 for my app, but this dependency is currently blocking. It would be great if we can get this merged. Thanks.

Sorry for bugging again @pablo-abc but this is a blocker for us to try out svelte 5 for our app, would you be able to take a look ? Thanks
