chore(release): 0.5.2

Table auto-alignment scanned for cell separators with a naive find('|'),
so a cell containing a vimwiki link `[[url|title]]` was split at the link's
internal pipe — mangling both the link (`[[url` / `title]]`) and the table
(a phantom extra column). Same bug in both the Lua (Neovim) and VimL (Vim)
table code, in both table_cell_starts and parse_table_row.

Add a shared cell-separator scanner (cell_bar_positions) that treats `|` as
literal — not a separator — when it's inside `[[…]]` wikilinks, `{{…}}`
transclusions, `` `…` `` inline code, or backslash-escaped (`\|`), matching
vimwiki. Both scan functions in each client now use it.

Regression tests added on both clients (cr.table_link_cell_pipe_not_a_separator);
full harness green (Neovim 308, Vim 302).
