feat(compiler): add compile start/complete notifications

Problem: No user-facing feedback when compilation starts or finishes.
Long-running compilers like pandoc with `--embed-resources` leave the
user staring at nothing for 15+ seconds.

Solution: Notify "compiling..." at compile start and "compilation
complete" on success. The initial `toggle` call uses a combined
"compiling with <name>..." message to avoid stacking two notifications.
