Add Polish translations

[Kocmouch]

Description

Adds full Polish (pl) localization support to Recordly.

This PR registers pl as a supported app locale, adds complete Polish translations for all current i18n namespaces, and exposes Polish in the language selectors used in the launch UI and editor settings.

Motivation

Recordly already supports multiple UI languages, but Polish was not available.

This change adds Polish as a first-class locale so Polish-speaking users can use the launch UI, editor, dialogs, settings, shortcuts, timeline labels, and extensions UI in their language.

Testing Guide

1. Install dependencies:

npm install

2. Start the app:

npm run dev

3. Switch the app locale to Polish:

• In the launch HUD: open the language menu and select Polski
• In the editor: open Settings and select Polski

4. If the language dropdown is difficult to use in the current HUD layout, force the locale in DevTools:

localStorage.setItem("recordly.locale", "pl")
location.reload()

5. Verify the UI is translated in:

• launch / recording UI
• editor settings
• export UI
• dialogs
• keyboard shortcuts
• extensions
• timeline labels

6. Verify the Polish locale matches the English locale structure:

node -e 'const fs=require("fs");const path=require("path");const base=path.join(process.cwd(),"src/i18n/locales/en");const pl=path.join(process.cwd(),"src/i18n/locales/pl");const files=fs.readdirSync(base).filter(f=>f.endsWith(".json")).sort();const collect=(obj,prefix="")=>Object.entries(obj).flatMap(([k,v])=>v&&typeof v==="object"&&!Array.isArray(v)?collect(v,prefix?`${prefix}.${k}`:k):[prefix?`${prefix}.${k}`:k]);let ok=true;for(const f of files){const en=JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(path.join(base,f),"utf8"));const plj=JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(path.join(pl,f),"utf8"));const enKeys=collect(en).sort();const plKeys=collect(plj).sort();const missing=enKeys.filter(k=>!plKeys.includes(k));const extra=plKeys.filter(k=>!enKeys.includes(k));if(missing.length||extra.length){ok=false;console.log(f,{missing,extra});}}if(ok) console.log("pl locale matches en structure across", files.length, "files");'

Note: npm run i18n:check currently reports pre-existing failures in other locales unrelated to this PR.

Consider centralizing locale display labels to avoid sync drift.

Both LOCALE_LABELS in MorePopover.tsx and APP_LANGUAGE_LABELS in SettingsPanel.tsx now duplicate the same pl: "Polski" entry. Each new locale requires updating both maps manually. Extracting a single shared LOCALE_LABELS: Record<AppLocale, string> into src/i18n/config.ts and importing it in both components would eliminate this duplication and prevent future drift.

This is a manual contribution adding Polish localization support to Recordly.

What I've changed changed:

• added 'pl' (Polish) to the supported app locales
• registered the Polish locale in the i18n context
• added Polish translations for all current i18n namespaces (as in other locales)
• exposed Polski in the launch and editor language selectors to math the current way of selectign languages

How did i perform validation:

• verified the new pl locale matches the en locale structure across all 8 namespace files
• manually tested locale switching by setting recordly.locale to pl and confirming the UI renders Polish strings in the launch UI, editor settings, dialogs, export UI, shortcuts, timeline labels, and extensions UI (also with the use of devTools)
