Allow bold formatting in the spotlight product's marketing text

Products.spotlightText switches from a plain textarea to a richText field
(Lexical, same default editor as every other richText field here) so
admins get a formatting toolbar. Rendered via a small dedicated inline
converter (bold + paragraphs only) rather than the full block-oriented
RichText.tsx, which is styled for article-length content (blog posts,
legal pages) and would add heading/paragraph spacing this teaser doesn't
want.
