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 Reviewed-on: #2

+"""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.
+
+Usage:
+    scripts/llm_translator.py ws://localhost:8210/_translate/KEY
+    scripts/llm_translator.py wss://example.com/_translate/KEY --model qwen3.8:27b
