feat(launcher): route all UI strings through t(key) indirection

strings.lua holds English defaults. ctx.t(key, ...) looks up the key,
optionally string.formats with extra args, and falls back to '[key]'
for missing entries. All panels and init.lua sweep clean of inline
literals — verified by a grep over '"[A-Z][a-z][a-z ]+"'. This sets
up v2's localization-lib-pattern (separate slice, ADR-0036 trigger)
to swap STRINGS without touching the launcher code.
