Why footnotes vanish inside `place(float: true, scope: "parent")`

Notes on typst/typst#5765, written up while chasing the same bug downstream in pandoc (jgm/pandoc#11807; quarto-dev/quarto-cli#14484 has the same root cause). pandoc's default Typst template puts the title block in a parent-scoped float so that it spans columns, and a thanks footnote on the title then renders a marker with no entry.
