* feat(ui): add composer enter-to-send toggle and native hardware-keyboard detection Replaces the settings-page "Enter sends with a keyboard attached" checkbox with an EnterKeyToggle in the composer footer: plain Enter submits / Shift+Enter inserts a newline when enabled, Shift+Enter submits / Enter inserts a newline when disabled. Ctrl/Cmd+Enter always submits as the soft-keyboard fallback. Persisted as enterToSend. Adds the Android HardwareKeyboardPlugin: scans input devices for an alphabetic physical keyboard (ignoring phantom key/sensor devices), re-answers on config changes/foreground, and confirms attachment from real hardware key events. MainActivity surfaces key events to it before the WebView consumes them. The composer and draft layout start keyboard-aware instead of inferring one focus late; ComposerEditor preserves Enter modifiers through CodeMirror's deferred re-dispatch so the toggle can tell Shift/Ctrl+Enter from plain Enter. Removes the settings search entry and i18n keys for the old checkbox. * refactor(ui): keep enter-to-send branch focused * fix(ui): preserve enter-toggle taps on touch * fix(ui): preserve enter key defaults and move setting * fix(ui): keep enter setting lint-clean * fix(i18n): preserve current Turkish message parity * fix(settings): persist enter-to-send preference * fix(ui): clarify enter-to-send setting * fix(ui): apply enter preference on desktop * fix(ui): match enter setting focus mode default * test(ui): cover enter key policy matrix * fix(ui): harden deferred enter handling * fix(chat): preserve untouched Enter policy and validate settings --------- Co-authored-by: Bohdan Triapitsyn <artmore@protonmail.com>
