Kgothatso Ngako 2117e22d48 refactor: make the 40 interpolated UI strings format strings, and assert the argument order
Phase 4, third step, of docs/material-design-conformance.md. `Text("Add chapter to
${uiState.artifact.name}")` becomes a resource holding `Add chapter to %1$s` and a call
passing the expression. 49 call sites. Literals in composables go 76 -> 39;
`stringResource` goes 374 -> 424.

**A silent bug in the previous commit's extractor, found by this one.** Imports were
tested with `statement in source`, and the generated accessors are named after their
strings -- so `import mantra.composeapp.generated.resources.translate` is a *prefix* of
`...resources.translate_into_which_dialect`. The substring test decided the import was
already there, and the compiler reported "Unresolved reference 'translate'" in a file
whose imports looked complete. Both extractors now match whole lines, and the helper
carries the explanation.

**Four filters, each earned by something the dry run got wrong.**

*A template that is only interpolation has nothing to translate.* `Text("$name")` would
have become a resource holding `%1$s` -- longer, slower, and no more localisable than the
code it replaced.

*A leading or trailing space means it is being glued to a neighbour.* " \\u00b7 %1$s" is a
separator. The test has to be on the format string rather than on the literal halves: a
template opening with an interpolation leaves the first part empty and the second starting
with the separating space, which makes "%1$s Key packages" look like a fragment when it is
a whole label.

*`\\uXXXX` and `\\"` are Kotlin syntax, not XML.* Left alone they would have shipped as the
six visible characters of the escape. They are decoded into the resource, which is UTF-8
and can hold `·` directly. `\\n` is **not** decoded, because
StringCatalogueJvmTest shows Compose Resources processes that one and a real newline in an
XML value would be reflowed by the parser.

*A term of a `+` concatenation is still not a string.* Same rule as the plain extractor.

**Three copy problems surfaced only here, because interpolated strings had never been
checked.** `m3-title-case.py` excludes anything containing `$` -- an interpolation is not a
literal -- so `"$count Key Packages"` had been invisible to every pass so far, as had
`"replying To ${…}"`. And a third instance of the old product name, in
`"...once they're on Torch."`. All three fixed. Worth noting as a gap in the checker rather
than a one-off: title case inside a template is still unchecked, and there are 83
concatenation fragments left where it could hide.

**Two new assertions, on the two things a compiler cannot see.** Argument *order* is
decided by where each `${…}` sat, and a transposition compiles and reads plausibly --
"Recovered 3 of 12" against "Recovered 12 of 3" -- so a two-argument and a three-argument
string are asserted end to end. The three-argument one doubles as the check that `·`
was decoded rather than passed through.

**What is deliberately left.** 83 literals that are terms of a `+` concatenation.
Reassembling `"a " + x + " b"` into one format string means deciding what the whole
sentence is, and several are pluralisations -- `(if (n == 2) "event" else "events")` --
which want a real plural resource rather than a format argument, and that is an API choice
rather than a rewrite. `m3-extract-formatted.py --remaining` lists them.

**Tests.** 949 pass, 600 jvm over 73 classes and 349 android over 44, up from 947/598/349.
`:composeApp:compileDebugKotlinAndroid` builds; the debug apk installs and runs on
emulator-5554 through onboarding, the message list and a chat room with its text intact.
`m3-audit.sh --check` exits 0.
