Modified the LaTeX template and shim plugin to suppress paragraph breaks caused by myst-to-tex's image handler. A new TeX macro swallows the trailing \par for inline images that are followed by other content, ensuring text flows correctly around icons and small images.

Fix unwanted line breaks after inline images in compiled PDF
Inline images in the compiled PDF were causing paragraph breaks, resulting in unwanted line breaks mid-sentence. This fix suppresses those breaks for inline images that have following content in the same paragraph.
Changes
_latex-template/template.tex: Added a\snapinlineparhookmacro that installs a one-shot redefinition of\par, swallowing the next paragraph break (and trailing space) so the surrounding paragraph continues uninterrupted._support/plugins/latex-shims.mjs: Added a new AST transform step that inserts\snapinlineparhookbefore each inline image that has content following it in the same parent. Inline images at the end of their parent are left untouched so legitimate paragraph breaks are preserved. Also added awalkWithParenthelper to safely traverse and mutate the AST.Root Cause
myst-to-tex's image handler unconditionally emits\n\nafter every\includegraphics, which LaTeX interprets as\par, breaking the paragraph after every inline image. Since the handler can't be overridden from a plugin, the fix intercepts at the AST level before rendering.Visual Changes
Page 63 — inline image now flows correctly within the paragraph
