Adds a small `:translate` Gradle module that translates received SMS /
MMS bubbles and conversation-list snippets on the fly by binding to the
offline-translator app on F-Droid (`dev.davidv.translator`). The actual
translation runs there — Mozilla Bergamot/Marian on-device — so this
patch ships no model, no inference, and no permissions beyond an
Android 11+ <queries> block for package visibility.
Behavior:
- User-defined source-language allowlist + target language in
Settings → Translation (right after Language). Off by default.
- Auto-translate fires on RecyclerView bind for received bubbles and
conversation snippets. Detection uses ML Kit Language Identification
(CLD3, on-device). Once dev.davidv.translator exposes a
detectLanguage() AIDL method we'll route through that and drop ML Kit.
- AIDL latency is sub-second, so the bubble just quietly swaps from
the original to the translation — no loading spinner.
- Tap the translate icon next to a bubble to flip it back to the
original; tap again to flip to the translation. Cached in process
memory.
- Long-press → ⋮ → Translate forces a one-off translation regardless
of the allowlist (useful for messages in non-allowlisted languages),
with a toast surfacing AIDL errors like 'language pack not installed'.
- Copy / Share / Select on a translated bubble captures what the user
sees, not the underlying source body.
- Silently no-ops when offline-translator isn't installed; settings
screen shows an F-Droid install banner.
- Translation Settings is a regular Fossify sub-screen with
MyAppBarLayout + MaterialToolbar + NestedScrollView, matching
Manage Blocked Numbers / Keywords / SettingsActivity.
No new database, no service, no boot receiver, no foreground service.

* feat: add option to keep conversations archived
Refs: https://github.com/FossifyOrg/Messages/issues/334
* fix: archive/unarchive when mms is received
Previously, conversations weren't unarchived for new MMS messages.
* docs: update changelog
This adds support for filtering incoming messages based on
message body by checking if it contains any of the blocked keywords
(case insensitive). Regex and patterns are not supported at the moment.
NOTE: This does not currently support MMS, only SMS.
