README.md has a stray empty markdown bullet directly before an unindented <img> tag, breaking the repo-links list rendering #255

Description

@chonilius

README.md's "Related repositories" section reads:

Related repositories:
- [`mergefi/backend`](https://github.com/MergeFi/backend) — NestJS API: ...
- [`mergefi/contracts`](https://github.com/MergeFi/contracts) — Soroban smart contracts: ...
-
<img width="1920" height="1200" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c019b457-90a0-4f2e-94d9-ab927de326dd" />

The third line is a bare - (a list marker with no content), and the <img> tag on the
following line is not indented as a continuation of that list item, nor separated from it
by a blank line. On GitHub's markdown renderer this produces an empty bullet point
followed by an image that may or may not render inline with the list depending on the
exact parser's handling of the ambiguous adjacency — at minimum it's a visibly broken
list item in the rendered README that every visitor to the repo's front page sees.

The same pattern (a screenshot <img> immediately after a list, on its own line with no
separation) repeats once more later in the file after the "Core users" table, though that
occurrence sits after a completed table rather than mid-list, so it's less visibly broken.

Suggested fix: remove the stray - line, and add a blank line between the repo list and
the following <img> tag so it renders as a distinct block rather than an ambiguous
continuation of the list.
