## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Small tweaks to #1016:
- Only Activity and ActivityManager can access activityResultHandler and
activityResult
- `[[maybe_unused]]` in RenderLock constructor
- Only ActivityManager and RenderLock can access renderingMutex
- Missing renderUpdate after failed wifi selection
- Standardize on activities calling finish instead of
activityManager.popActivity
- Hold RenderLock while mutating state in EpubReaderActivity result
handlers

**What is the goal of this PR?**
Correction to #1157, which (embarrassingly) failed to actually include
the updated font header files. (Maybe we should generate these at build
time?)
Add Latin Extended-B glyphs for Croatian, Romanian, Pinyin, and European
diacritical variants. Fixes#921.

When update activity finds no update or fails, the "Back" button label

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Probable fix for #1118. `sanitizeFilename` was only passing through
ASCII characters from filenames. It now maintains valid UTF-8
codepoints, including non-ASCII multibyte sequences. Truncation happens
at a maximum number of bytes, rather than characters, to prevent
filenames with many multibyte sequences from unexpectedly exceeding
FAT32 limits.

**What is the goal of this PR?**
I18nKeys.h and I18nStrings.h are generated by gen_i18n.py prior to each
build, so we do not need to maintain a checked-in copy of these files.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Improved typesetting, including
[kerning](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerning) and
[ligatures](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligature_(writing)#Latin_alphabet).
**What changes are included?**
- The script to convert built-in fonts now adds kerning and ligature
information to the generated font headers.
- Epub page layout calculates proper kerning spaces and makes ligature
substitutions according to the selected font.
## Additional Context
- I am not a typography expert.
- The implementation has been reworked from the earlier version, so it
is no longer necessary to omit Open Dyslexic, and kerning data now
covers all fonts, styles, and codepoints for which we include bitmap
data.
- Claude Opus 4.6 helped with a lot of this.
- There's an included test epub document with lots of kerning and
ligature examples, shown in the photos.
**_After some time to mature, I think this change is in decent shape to
merge and get people testing._**
After opening this PR I came across #660, which overlaps in adding
ligature support.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Small cleanup to make getTheme and getMetrics methods on UITheme const.
They return const refs, so updated call sites to use `const auto&`.
Realistically this won't make much performance difference, but it better
conveys the nature of theme metrics being shared const state.

## Summary
_Revision to @blindbat's #802. Description comes from the original PR._
- Replace `std::list` with `std::vector` for word storage in `TextBlock`
and `ParsedText`
- Use index-based access (`words[i]`) instead of iterator advancement
(`std::advance(it, n)`)
- Remove the separate `continuesVec` copy that was built from
`wordContinues` for O(1) access — now unnecessary since
`std::vector<bool>` already provides O(1) indexing
## Why
`std::list` allocates each node individually on the heap with 16 bytes
of prev/next pointer overhead per node. For text layout with many small
words, this means:
- Scattered heap allocations instead of contiguous memory
- Poor cache locality during iteration (each node can be anywhere in
memory)
- Per-node malloc/free overhead during construction and destruction
`std::vector` stores elements contiguously, giving better cache
performance during the tight rendering and layout loops. The
`extractLine` function also benefits: list splice was O(1) but required
maintaining three parallel iterators, while vector range construction
with move iterators is simpler and still efficient for the small
line-sized chunks involved.
## Files changed
- `lib/Epub/Epub/blocks/TextBlock.h` / `.cpp`
- `lib/Epub/Epub/ParsedText.h` / `.cpp`
## AI Usage
YES
## Test plan
- [ ] Open an EPUB with mixed formatting (bold, italic, underline) —
verify text renders correctly
- [ ] Open a book with justified text — verify word spacing is correct
- [ ] Open a book with hyphenation enabled — verify words break
correctly at hyphens
- [ ] Navigate through pages rapidly — verify no rendering glitches or
crashes
- [ ] Open a book with long paragraphs — verify text layout matches
pre-change behavior

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
`hasPrintableChars` does a pass over text before rendering. It looks up
glyphs in the font and measures dimensions, returning early if the text
results in zero size.
This additional pass doesn't offer any benefit over moving straight to
rendering the text, because the rendering loop already gracefully
handles missing glyphs. This change saves an extra pass over all
rendered text.
Note that both `hasPrintableChars` and `renderChar` replace missing
glyphs with `glyph = getGlyph(REPLACEMENT_GLYPH)`, so there's no
difference for characters which are not present in the font.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
This change fixes an issue I noticed while reading where occasionally,
especially in italics, some words would have too much space between
them. The problem was that word width calculations were including any
negative X overhang, and combined with a space before the word, that can
lead to an inconsistently large space.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
In some places, button labels are omitted intentionally because the
button has no purpose in the activity. I noticed a few obvious cases,
like Home > File Transfer and Settings > System > Language, where the up
and down button labels were missing. This change fixes those and all
similar instances I could find.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Several methods in GfxRenderer were doing a `count()` followed by `at()`
on the fonts map, effectively doing the same map lookup unnecessarily.
This can be avoided by doing a single `find()` and reusing the iterator.
