agessaman 698f18dc6e fix(i18n): anchor the local catalog on local_dir_path and wire it everywhere
The local translation path defaulted to a bare `local/translations/`, resolved
against the process cwd and unrelated to `[Bot] local_dir_path`. Since
`local_dir_path` already selects where an operator's commands, service plugins
and config overlay live, the catalog belongs in that same tree. It now defaults
to `<local_dir_path>/translations`, resolved absolute against the bot root, so
relocating `local_dir_path` moves the catalog with it and the lookup no longer
depends on the working directory. An explicit `local_translation_path` still
wins.

Only the constructor at startup was passing the local path. `get_translator()`
builds and caches a translator per detected language, and `reload_config()`
builds a fresh one, and both were still constructing `Translator` with the
distributed path alone. So local overrides silently vanished from any reply that
used the sender's language, and did not survive a config reload. Both now pass
it, `reload_config()` republishes it alongside `translation_path`, and it is
snapshotted and restored on rollback. The DummyTranslator fallback sets it too,
since `get_translator()` would otherwise raise AttributeError there.

Collapsed `_deep_merge_translations` into the existing `_merge_translations`,
which already merged deeply with the primary winning. Rewrote that one to stop
mutating its input: it shallow-copied `fallback` and then recursed into the
shared sub-dicts, so merging a base language over English corrupted the cached
English catalog at every level below the first. Also replaced the two `print()`
calls on the error paths with logger calls.

Registered `local_translation_path` in the config schema next to
`translation_path`, and reverted a trailing-whitespace reflow that touched 84
lines of config.ini.example for a one-key addition.

Tests: local overlay (single-string override, added keys, local-only catalog,
missing directory), the merge no longer mutating its fallback, the default
following `local_dir_path`, an explicit setting overriding it, the overlay
reaching `bot.translator` end to end, and a reload picking up a moved path.
