Description
This Pull Request introduces Turkish language support to CrossPoint
Reader firmware.
Key Changes:
- Translation File: Added lib/I18n/translations/turkish.yaml with 315
translated
string keys, covering all system UI elements.
- I18N Script Update: Modified scripts/gen_i18n.py to include the "TR"
abbreviation mapping for Turkish.
- System Integration: Regenerated I18N C++ files to include the new
Language::TR
enum and STRINGS_TR array.
- UI Availability: The language is now selectable in the Settings menu
and
correctly handles Turkish-specific characters (ç, ğ, ı, ö, ş, ü).
- Documentation: Updated docs/i18n.md to include Turkish in the list of
supported languages.
Testing:
- Verified the build locally with PlatformIO.
- Flashed the firmware to an Xteink X4 device and confirmed the Turkish
UI
renders correctly.

## Summary
* **What is the goal of this PR?** (e.g., Implements the new feature for
file uploading.)
Currently we are displaying the languages in the order they were added
(as in the `Language` enum). However, as new languages are coming in,
this will quickly be confusing to the users.
But we can't just change the ordering of the enum if we want to respect
bakwards compatibility.
So my proposal is to add a mapping of the alphabetical order of the
languages. I've made it so that it's generated by the `gen_i18n.py`
script, which will be used when a new language is added.
* **What changes are included?**
Added the array from the python script and changed
`LanguageSelectActivity` to use the indices from there. Also commited
the generated `I18nKeys.h`
## Additional Context
* Add any other information that might be helpful for the reviewer
(e.g., performance implications, potential risks,
specific areas to focus on).
I was wondering if there is a better way to sort it. Currently, it's by
unicode value and Czech and Russian are last, which I don't know it it's
the most intuitive.
The current order is:
`Català, Deutsch, English, Español, Français, Português (Brasil),
Română, Svenska, Čeština, Русский`

## 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.

I used AI for the black work of replacing strings with I18n references
across the project, and for generating the documentation. EDIT: also
some help with merging changes from master.
