feat(i18n): translate five more systems, and check for updates more often

Update cadence: the desktop app checked once ten seconds after launch and
then every four hours. A release published while the app sits open went
unnoticed until the next poll — which is exactly what happened with 1.4.0.
It now polls every 30 minutes and also checks when the window regains focus,
throttled to one check per five minutes so alt-tabbing does not hammer the
feed. `lastCheckAt` is stamped from the `checking-for-update` event rather
than by the callers, so a manual check from the settings panel counts too.
The focus listener is on `app`, not on mainWindow, because the window is
destroyed and recreated when closed to tray.

Translations, five whole systems:
  - Settings > Desktop (autostart, updates, instance)
  - Settings > Voice: output device, which completes that tab
  - Settings > Keybinds, including the action names and conflict prompt
  - Settings > Account, the largest — profile, password, detached-instance
    notice, danger zone
  - Explore spaces

Two sentences wrap a literal that must not be translated (the `input` group
name, the `user@instance` example). Those are split around a placeholder
rather than interpolated as text, so a translation keeps control of the word
order on both sides of it. Keybind action labels gained a `labelKey`
alongside the English `label`, which stays for non-React callers.

Verified: web build (tsc + vite), desktop typecheck, 490 web tests.
