mapping, power management, and theme adjustments for the X3 form factor.
## Summary
* **What is the goal of this PR?** All praise goes to @didacta for his
PR #537. Just picked up the reviewer comments to contain the changes as
suggested (there was no response for more than 6 weeks, so I wanted to
reanimate this feature).
Just one addition: should recognize usb cable plug ins / retractions and
update the icon immediately
* **What changes are included?**
## Additional Context

## Summary
This PR aims to reduce the complexity of the status bar by splitting the
setting into 5:
- Chapter Page Count
- Book Progress %
- Progress Bar
- Chapter Title
- Battery Indicator
These are located within the new StausBarSettings activity, which also
shows a preview of the bar the user has created

/>
When updating from a previous version, the user's past settings are
honoured.
## Additional Context
The PR aims to remove any duplication of status bar code where possible,
and extracts the status bar rendering into a new component - StatusBar
It also adds a new (optional) padding option to the progress bar to
allow the status bar to be shifted upwards - this is only intended for
use in the settings.

## 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
The introduction of `HalGPIO` moved the `BatteryMonitor battery` object
into the member function `HalGPIO::getBatteryPercentage()`.
Then, with the introduction of `HalPowerManager`, this function was
moved to `HalPowerManager::getBatteryPercentage()`.
However, the original `BatteryMonitor battery` object is still utilized
by themes for displaying the battery percentage.
This PR replaces these deprecated uses of `BatteryMonitor battery` with
the new `HalPowerManager::getBatteryPercentage()` function.

Issues solved: #729 and #739
## Summary
* **What is the goal of this PR?**
Currently, the battery icon and charge percentage were aligned to the
left even for the UI, where they were positioned on the right side of
the screen. This meant that when changing values of different numbers of
digits, the battery would shift, creating a block of icons and text that
was illegible.
* **What changes are included?**
- Add drawBatteryUi() method for right-aligned battery display in UI
headers
- Keep drawBattery() for left-aligned display in reader mode
- Extract drawBatteryIcon() helper to reduce code duplication
- Battery icon now stays fixed at right edge regardless of percentage
digits
- Text adjusts to left of icon in UI mode, to right of icon in reader
mode
## Additional Context
* Add any other information that might be helpful for the reviewer
* This fix applies to both themes (Base and Lyra).

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
This PR introduces Internationalization (i18n) support, enabling users
to switch the UI language dynamically.
**What changes are included?**
- Core Logic: Added I18n class (`lib/I18n/I18n.h/cpp`) to manage
language state and string retrieval.
- Data Structures:
- `lib/I18n/I18nStrings.h/cpp`: Static string arrays for each supported
language.
- `lib/I18n/I18nKeys.h`: Enum definitions for type-safe string access.
- `lib/I18n/translations.csv`: single source of truth.
- Documentation: Added `docs/i18n.md` detailing the workflow for
developers and translators.
- New Settings activity:
`src/activities/settings/LanguageSelectActivity.h/cpp`
## Additional Context
This implementation (building on concepts from #505) prioritizes
performance and memory efficiency.
The core approach is to store all localized strings for each language in
dedicated arrays and access them via enums. This provides O(1) access
with zero runtime overhead, and avoids the heap allocations, hashing,
and collision handling required by `std::map` or `std::unordered_map`.
The main trade-off is that enums and string arrays must remain perfectly
synchronized—any mismatch would result in incorrect strings being
displayed in the UI.
To eliminate this risk, I added a Python script that automatically
generates `I18nStrings.h/.cpp` and `I18nKeys.h` from a CSV file, which
will serve as the single source of truth for all translations. The full
design and workflow are documented in `docs/i18n.md`.
### Next Steps
- [x] Python script `generate_i18n.py` to auto-generate C++ files from
CSV
- [x] Populate translations.csv with initial translations.
Currently available translations: English, Español, Français, Deutsch,
Čeština, Português (Brasil), Русский, Svenska.
Thanks, community!
**Status:** EDIT: ready to be merged.
As a proof of concept, the SPANISH strings currently mirror the English
ones, but are fully uppercased.

across the project, and for generating the documentation. EDIT: also

## Summary
* Definition and use of a central LOG function, that can later be
extended or completely be removed (for public use where debugging
information may not be required) to save flash by suppressing the
-DENABLE_SERIAL_LOG like in the slim branch
* **What changes are included?**
## Additional Context
* By using the central logger the usual:
```
#include <HardwareSerial.h>
...
Serial.printf("[%lu] [WCS] Obfuscating/deobfuscating %zu bytes\n", millis(), data.size());
```
would then become
```
#include <Logging.h>
...
LOG_DBG("WCS", "Obfuscating/deobfuscating %zu bytes", data.size());
```
You do have ``LOG_DBG`` for debug messages, ``LOG_ERR`` for error
messages and ``LOG_INF`` for informational messages. Depending on the
verbosity level defined (see below) soe of these message types will be
suppressed/not-compiled.
* The normal compilation (default) will create a firmware.elf file of
42.194.356 bytes, the same code via slim will create 42.024.048 bytes -
170.308 bytes less
* Firmware.bin : 6.469.984 bytes for default, 6.418.672 bytes for slim -
51.312 bytes less

## Summary
Continue my changes to introduce the HAL infrastructure from
https://github.com/crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-reader/pull/522
This PR touches quite a lot of files, but most of them are just name
changing. It should not have any impacts to the end behavior.
## Additional Context
My plan is to firstly add this small shim layer, which sounds useless at
first, but then I'll implement an emulated driver which can be helpful
for testing and for development.
Currently, on my fork, I'm using a FS driver that allow "mounting" a
local directory from my computer to the device, much like the `-v` mount
option on docker. This allows me to quickly reset `.crosspoint`
directory if anything goes wrong. I plan to upstream this feature when
this PR get merged.

Fix for the page skip issue detected
https://github.com/crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-reader/pull/700#issuecomment-3856374323
by user @whyte-j
Skipping down on the last page now skips to the last item, and up on the
first page to the first item, rather than wrapping around the list in a
weird way.

## Summary
Reduce/fix the lag on the home screen before recent book covers are
rendered
## Additional Context
We were previously rendering the screen in two steps, delaying the
recent book covers render to avoid a lag before the screen loads.
In this PR, we are now doing that only if at least one book doesn't have
the cover thumbnail generated yet. If all thumbs are already generated,
we load and display them right away, with no lag.
