   Done on next-gen (c2a5fc1).

   • Strings: every user-facing string goes through @javaabu/i18n, with en and dv lines (Use @javaabu/i18n for every string #11).
   • Translations to review: 41 Dhivehi lines were written by the agent rather than taken from javaabu/forms v1's human-written file. They're listed for a native speaker in docs/advanced-usage/dhivehi-and-rtl.md#dhivehi-lines-to-review.
   • RTL: layout uses logical properties only, enforced by an ESLint rule. Side-pointing arrows flip in RTL. Fields with thaana get dir="rtl" lang="dv". Email, URL, phone, password and number inputs stay LTR.
   • Thaana input: with Onu, Onu's own Thaana support handles it. Every other adapter uses the core's thaanaKeyDown, the JTK phonetic layout that Onu also uses. It inserts at the caret and fires onChange.
   • Tests: tests of user-facing behaviour use Thaana text, with the RTL and Thaana cases in src/core/rtl.test.tsx.
