Kevin Veen-Birkenbach e96e8684e6 feat(i18n): translate labels, and keep brand names out of it
name and title were translated at render time but never machine-filled,
on the grounds that no backend tells the menu label "Pictures" from the
brand "Mastodon". That left the visible half of a card in English. They
are filled now, and the two key sets collapse into one.

The brands need somewhere to be named instead. app/i18n/keep.txt lists
them, one per line, and every entry is stored as itself in every target
language: no request, and never over an entry written by hand. --keep adds
one-off strings, --keep-file points elsewhere.

The shipped list holds the 43 product names that appear as name: or title:
in config.sample.yaml. Generic labels — Pictures, Imprint, Settings,
Certificates — are deliberately absent, and so are Cybermaster, Polymath
and Yachtmaster, which read as brand or as job title depending on who is
asking.

Two of these behaviours first shipped unguarded. A test that protected a
string and asserted the hand-written value survived passed either way,
because a run where nothing is missing reports "complete" and never
writes; and nothing exercised main(), so the keep file could stop being
read without a failure. Both are covered.

## 🌍 Languages
Every ISO 639-1 language — all 184 two-letter codes — has a URL, a display
name in its own script and a writing direction. The interface ships translated
for 29 of them; the rest fall back to English string by string until a
catalogue is filled. `/` serves the best match for the visitor's
`Accept-Language` header, `/<code>/` forces one, and a switcher in the navbar
lists them all. The ten right-to-left languages get `dir="rtl"` and Bootstrap's RTL
stylesheet automatically.
Translations live in two catalogues, both keyed by the English source string:
| Path | Tracked | Holds |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `app/i18n/ui/<code>.yaml` | yes | Interface strings. Shipped for 29 languages; English is the source and has no file. |
| `app/i18n/content/<code>.yaml` | no | Your `config.yaml` prose, generated per deployment. |
A string with no catalogue entry falls back to English, so a half-filled
catalogue degrades instead of breaking.
Fill the content catalogues from a [LibreTranslate](https://libretranslate.com/)
instance — set `LIBRETRANSLATE_URL` in `.env`, then:
```bash
make i18n
```
This fills the interface strings of the languages that ship no catalogue as
well. Existing entries are never overwritten, and a string the shipped
catalogue already covers is never requested, so corrections you make by hand
survive later runs.
`name`, `title`, `description`, `text`, `warning`, `info` and `subtitel` are
translated; `url`, `link_text`, `identifier` and icon classes never are.
A machine cannot tell the menu label "Pictures" from the brand "Mastodon", so
list the brands in `app/i18n/keep.txt`, one per line — they are then stored as
themselves in every language and cost no request:
```
# Strings utils/i18n_sync.py stores as themselves instead of translating.
Mastodon
Nextcloud
freelancermap.de
```
Add one-off entries with `--keep Foo Bar`, or point somewhere else with
`--keep-file`. A protected string never replaces an entry you already wrote by
hand.

## 🚢 Production Deployment
* Use a reverse proxy (NGINX/Apache).
* Secure with SSL/TLS.
* Swap to a production database if needed.
Because every page carries a canonical URL and 184 `hreflang` alternates, two
details of the proxy setup now matter:
* **Set `TRUSTED_HOSTS`** in `.env` to your public hostname(s), comma-separated.
Left empty, the app reflects whatever `Host` header arrives into its canonical,
`hreflang` and redirect URLs — so a shared cache in front of it can be made to
store a redirect pointing somewhere else.
* **Have the proxy send `X-Forwarded-Proto`.** Without it the app cannot know TLS
terminated upstream and every canonical URL claims `http://`. `X-Forwarded-Host`
is deliberately *not* trusted; set `Host` to the public name instead.
