🚀 What's New

🖱️ Touchpad & Text Editing Mode

• Gboard-style Text Editing Mode: Added a dedicated cursor navigation and editing overlay. Activated from the toolbar, it offers precise DPAD navigation, custom selection mode (Shift + arrows), clipboard actions (Select All, Copy, Cut, Paste), and editing utilities (Backspace, Forward Delete).
• Dedicated Touchpad settings section: Extracted Touchpad configuration from Advanced Gestures into its own dedicated settings category page.
• Full-screen Touchpad: Added a preference to automatically hide the suggestion strip and toolbar when Touchpad mode is active, maximizing the touchpad surface area.
• Touchpad Close Button: Added an overlay close button at the bottom-right corner of the touchpad, styled dynamically according to the active keyboard theme, for quick exit.

📋 Clipboard & Screenshot Suggestions

• Persistent Suggestions Dismissal: The keyboard now remembers if you dismissed a clipboard text or screenshot suggestion, preventing it from showing up again even across keyboard restarts. The dismissed state automatically resets when a new item is copied.
• Reduced Suggestion Timeouts: Reduced clipboard and screenshot suggestion timeouts to 1 minute to keep suggestions fresh.

🔤 Text Expander Improvements

• Shortcut Prefix Fix: Resolved a prefix matching bug where custom prefixes (e.g. * for shortcut g) were prepended twice (matching **g instead of *g), restoring instant and spacebar text expansion.
• Improved Dialog Layout: Stacked the Prefix and Shortcut input fields vertically inside the Add/Edit Shortcut dialog for better legibility.

📚 Dictionary & Settings Refinement

• Polished Dictionary Settings UI: Re-designed the layout using modern Material 3 Card components, colorful badges/chips for dictionary types, and uniform utility icon sizes.
• Smart Language Fallback: Regional variants (e.g., ml-IN) will now fall back to the general parent language dictionary (e.g., ml) if country-specific files are missing, ensuring seamless next-word predictions.
• Unified Dictionary Toggling: Grouped all dictionary subtypes (including downloaded emoji dictionaries) under a single master toggle per language card, and removed redundant buttons.
• Aesthetic Filtering: Hidden non-enabled regional variant cards from the settings menu to reduce clutter, while keeping them configurable inside the active language dialog.
• Download Path Collision Fix: Extracted specific locales from download URLs to prevent file collision and duplicate settings cards.

⚙️ Engine & Compatibility

• Build Flavor Split: Split standard build into FOSS-compliant "standard" (no ML Kit, F-Droid ready) and "standardfull" (includes ML Kit/Handwriting).
• Secure Signing Workflow: Added secure CI/CD release build signing workflow for reproducible builds.
• ABI & Theme Fixes: Re-added armeabi-v7a support to ABI filters, fixed popup key contrast-aware colors on AMOLED black theme, and improved split mode suggestions.
