    Done on next-gen:

    • Every string in src goes through __() with an English key, in lang/en.json and lang/dv.json. TranslationsTest fails if a source string is missing from either file, or isn't Thaana in dv.
    • Uncertain translations are listed for review in docs/advanced-usage/translations.md. "Delete" is spelt ފުހެލުން, to match javaabu/forms' ފުހެލާ.
    • Tests use Thaana for user-facing data: role descriptions, search, and the Dhivehi edit page.

    What's left: RTL and Thaana input in the role pages, which waits on #10 (blocked).

    RTL and Thaana are done for the views.

    • Logical utilities only: a test rejects ml-, text-left and the like in the Blade views.
    • Direction: descriptions use dir="auto", and names and guards are dir="ltr". With translatable, the Dhivehi description input gets dir="rtl", lang="dv" and the Thaana keyboard.
    • Strings: 22 new strings in lang/dv.json. The translation test now also scans the Blade views, and the review table in docs/advanced-usage/translations.md is updated.
