Improved auto translation support (#2)

- Added full article / with markdown mode for advanced LLMs, with local ollama and API support, new llm_translator script.
- Translate navigational titles as a whole (preserving site structure), and then retranslate as article headings with article context - potentially changing nav label
- Improved human overrides to translations, in particular when structure is affected

"""Import a human-made whole-article translation into the fragment store.
A full translation produced outside the pipeline (e.g. by ChatGPT, pasted
into a file) is decomposed with the same alignment and validation as an
article-mode LLM result (pagerite.translate.align_article): blocks are
stored as proper Data.trans fragments, so later source edits invalidate
and re-translate per chunk instead of letting one monolithic user patch
silently go stale hunk by hunk.
Run with the Pagerite server STOPPED (the script opens the same kanta
database). Blocks that fail validation stay untranslated — the translator
service picks them up as scoped jobs on the next run.
Usage:
scripts/import_translation.py PATH LANG FILE.md [--db DB]
Run from the repository root (the script runs in the project environment).
PATH is the page path without leading slash ("" = front page), LANG the
target language base tag (e.g. fi), FILE.md the translated Markdown.

"""Pagerite LLM translator service: translate site content with an instruct
LLM that handles Markdown natively (docs/llm-translation.md).
Same channel as scripts/translator.py (Seed-X) — connect to the server's
translator WebSocket URL including its access key, announce capabilities,
answer one job at a time — but speaks the "markdown", "article" and "nav"
job modes: fragments, whole pages and the whole navigation tree cross as
Markdown, and the server validates structure (blocks, fences, URLs,
placeholders, list shape) before storing.
The script figures out the LLM-side details itself: the endpoint shape is
autodetected (an ollama server answers /api/version and gets its native
/api/chat — its OpenAI-compatible /v1 ignores think:false, which hybrid
models need off; anything else gets /v1/chat/completions — a Kimi Code
/coding endpoint additionally has its sampling fields dropped, since it
fixes them internally and 400s otherwise, and gets reasoning_effort
from the config), and the
announced language capabilities follow the model family unless overridden
(--langs). API keys come only from the standard per-provider environment
variables (KIMI_API_KEY, MOONSHOT_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY — each sent
only to its own provider's host — and LLM_API_KEY for any other
OpenAI-compatible endpoint): never a config file on disk, never a CLI
flag visible in the process list. Backend quirks (sampling, num_predict
cap, think) live in DEFAULT_CONFIG, not in the protocol.
