feat(theseus/translate): new sidebar add-on — right-click Translate selection Adds a bundled add-on `translate` with a sidebar panel + a right-click "Translate selection" menu item. Two swappable backends: - LibreTranslate (default) — free MIT engine; the panel's Settings tab lets the user point at any instance (public or self-hosted) and drop in an API key if one's required. - Google (unofficial free endpoint at translate.googleapis.com/ translate_a/single) — no key, wide coverage, but unofficial and Google can break it any time. Opt-in fallback. Flow: user selects text on a page, right-clicks -> "Translate selection". Add-on's context-menu handler stashes the selection under storage.__pending and calls api.revealSidebar("main"); the panel loads, drains __pending on first paint, and translates. Ctrl/Cmd+Enter in the input textarea also translates. Source + target language choices, browser-language default target, swap button, copy-to- clipboard on the output, settings gear. Depends on a new "context-menu-item" capability + api.revealSidebar hook in addons-host.js / main.js. Those wiring changes are prepared but not committed here — a parallel session is refactoring the same functions concurrently, so the safe path is to land translate/ first and let the wiring go in alongside the next host-facing commit. Until the wiring lands, the manifest's "context-menu-item" cap is silently dropped (per validateManifest's unknown-caps policy) and the sidebar panel + the panel's translation UI still work standalone — the right-click entry point is what's gated.

extensions: real PDF/DOC icons + fix translate default URL - pdf-editor 0.1.1 → 0.1.2: manifest.icon is a data:image/svg+xml red PDF document badge (dock renders it as <img>). Same on toolbar-menu.icon. Item-level icons dropped — those go through the native OS menu that doesn't render data URIs. - translate 0.1.0 → 0.1.1: default LibreTranslate mirror was translate.argosopentech.com, which is now a dead domain — panel just said "Failed" on every request. Switched default to translate.disroot.org (currently up), added a datalist of known mirrors, and a one-shot migration off the dead default so existing installs recover on next load. - docx-editor 0.1.0 → 0.1.1: manifest.icon is a data:image/svg+xml blue DOC document badge, index.js no longer overrides it with 📝, and the panel header uses the same inline SVG. Same rationale as pdf-editor — every extension was rendering as either 📄 or 📝, so PDF and Word were visually identical to the Notepad.
