* fix: require magic string in portable marker to prevent false portable mode
Scoop's extras bucket extracts the NSIS installer via #/dl.7z, which can
leave a stale empty portable file next to the exe. This caused
portable::init() to falsely trigger portable mode on non-portable scoop
installs, storing data in Data/ next to the exe (wiped on each update).
Changes:
- portable.rs: only enable portable mode when marker contains
"Handy Portable Mode"; extracted is_valid_portable_marker() with tests
- installer.nsi: write magic string when creating marker file
- installer.nsi: validate magic string in update auto-detect block
- installer.nsi: allow desktop shortcut creation from finish page
checkbox in portable mode (was silently doing nothing)
- commands/mod.rs + lib.rs: expose is_portable() as a Tauri command
- UpdateChecker.tsx: show manual-update popup for portable installs
instead of attempting auto-install (which would download MSI)
- en/translation.json: add i18n strings for portable update popup
Fixes#1124

* fix: add missing translation keys to all locales and fix prettier formatting
Add portableUpdateTitle, portableUpdateMessage, portableUpdateButton to
all 17 non-English locales (English fallback text) so check:translations
passes. Also run prettier on the PR's modified files to fix format:check.

* fix: migrate legacy empty portable markers from v0.8.0
v0.8.0 created an empty `portable` marker file. Users who manually
update (drop new exe in place) would silently lose portable mode since
the new magic-string check rejects empty files.
Migration: if the marker exists but has invalid/empty content AND a
`Data/` directory is present, treat it as a real portable install and
rewrite the marker with the magic string. This handles the v0.8.0 →
new upgrade path without regressing the scoop false-positive fix
(scoop does not create a Data/ directory).

* ci: add temporary test workflow for portable ZIP validation
* ci: fix mock setup in test workflow
* ci: remove temporary test workflow
* feat: add portable mode option to NSIS installer
Custom NSIS template based on tauri-v2.9.1 upstream with 6 targeted
modifications for portable mode support:
- New PortableMode variable and /PORTABLE CLI flag for silent installs
- Install type selection page with Normal/Portable radio buttons
- Conditional default directory (Desktop for portable, LocalAppData for normal)
- Skip registry writes, file associations, deep links, and uninstaller for portable
- Skip Start Menu and desktop shortcuts for portable installs
- Create portable marker file and Data/ directory on portable install
The existing portable.rs runtime detection is unchanged — it looks for the
same marker file this installer creates.
Usage:
GUI: select "Portable Installation" on the install type page
Silent: Handy_setup.exe /S /PORTABLE /D=C:\path\to\Handy

* feat: implement true portable mode via source code path override
Detect a `portable` marker file next to the executable at startup.
When present, redirect all data paths (settings, models, recordings,
database, logs) to a local `Data/` directory instead of %APPDATA%.
This approach works because it intercepts path resolution at the Rust
level, bypassing Tauri/Windows Shell API limitations that made the
previous environment-variable and junction approaches unreliable.
Changes:
- Add src-tauri/src/portable.rs with OnceLock-based detection
- Replace all app.path().app_data_dir() calls with portable helper
- Configure tauri-plugin-log to use Folder target when portable
- Configure tauri-plugin-store with absolute path when portable
- Simplify build.yml portable ZIP (exe + resources + marker file)

* fix: add missing Manager trait import in portable.rs
The .path() method on AppHandle requires `tauri::Manager` in scope.

* fix: redirect WebView2 cache to portable Data dir
Move main window creation from tauri.conf.json to setup closure so
we can set data_directory when in portable mode. This prevents
WebView2 from creating %LOCALAPPDATA%\com.pais.handy.
Also set data_directory on the recording overlay window.

* fix: auto-detect portable mode during updates
When the Tauri updater runs the installer with /UPDATE, the install type
page is skipped and /PORTABLE is not passed. Detect the existing portable
marker file in .onInit so updates preserve portable mode automatically.
