Add tauri-plugin-webview-upgrade as a git submodule under
apps/readest-app/src-tauri/plugins/. On Android devices whose system
WebView is locked to an old Chromium build (Huawei phones, Moaan / Onyx
/ Kobo e-ink readers, AOSP forks without Play Store, etc.), the reader
bundle renders as a blank screen. The plugin bootstraps before
Application.onCreate via androidx.startup and redirects the in-process
WebView loader to a recent com.google.android.webview when the user has
one sideloaded — opening the only window in which WebViewUpgrade can
swap the provider, before Tauri/Wry creates any WebView.
Thresholds (minUpgradeMajor / minSupportedMajor) come from
plugins.webview-upgrade in tauri.conf.json and are baked into Kotlin
constants at Gradle build time. Below the supported threshold with no
upgrade option, the plugin shows a localized AlertDialog (15 languages,
English fallback) prompting the user to install Android System WebView.

* feat(reader): custom dictionaries (StarDict + MDict)
Adds a pluggable dictionary provider system. Built-in Wiktionary +
Wikipedia (extracted from the legacy single-popup model into a tabbed
shell) plus user-importable StarDict (.ifo/.idx/.dict.dz/.syn) and MDict
(.mdx/.mdd) bundles.
Settings → Language → Dictionaries: import / enable / drag-reorder /
delete (delete-mode toggle mirrors CustomFonts). Drag uses @dnd-kit with
pointer/touch/keyboard sensors. Reader popup: tabbed UI, per-tab lookup
history, scroll-aware back button, last-active tab persists. Tabs grow
to natural width up to a cap, truncate with ellipsis when crowded; phantom
bold layer prevents layout shift on focus.
StarDict reader is self-contained (replaces unused foliate-js/dict.js),
with lazy random-access binary search on .idx + .syn (~420 KB Int32Array
of byte offsets vs ~10 MB of parsed JS objects), lazy DictZip chunk
decompression via fflate streaming Inflate (cmudict/eng-nld both
chunked), and an optional .idx.offsets sidecar generated at import to
skip the init scan. Cmudict 105K-entry init drops from ~10 MB heap and
2 MB IO to ~1.7 MB heap and ~500 KB IO.
MDict uses the readest/js-mdict fork (added as a submodule, consumed via
tsconfig paths so deps stay out of readest's pnpm-lock) which adds a
browser-friendly BlobScanner reading via blob.slice(...).arrayBuffer()
— slices are lazy when the Blob is Readest's NativeFile / RemoteFile.
encrypt=2 (key-info-only) MDX is fully supported via ripemd128-based
mdxDecrypt; encrypt=1 (record-block, needs user passcode) surfaces as
unsupported.
Wikipedia annotation tool removed (Wikipedia is now a tab inside the
unified popup); legacy WiktionaryPopup / WikipediaPopup deleted. Stale
annotationQuickAction === 'wikipedia' coerced to 'dictionary' on settings
load. iOS-friendly external links: skip target="_blank" on Tauri to
avoid the WebView's "open externally" path triggering the shell scope
error; the popup's container click handler routes through openUrl.
i18n: 939 strings translated across 31 locales (30 base keys + CLDR
plural forms for ar/he/sl/pl/ru/uk/ro/it/pt/fr/es).
Test fixtures bundled: cmudict (StarDict, 105K entries), eng-nld
(StarDict, smaller), and a Longman Phrasal Verbs MDX (encrypt=2).
3396 unit tests pass.

* fix(stardict): resolve fflate from js-mdict source for vitest + Next
js-mdict is consumed as TypeScript source via tsconfig paths from
packages/js-mdict/src/. Its sources `import 'fflate'` directly, but
fflate is only installed under apps/readest-app/node_modules — so
vite's import-analysis (and Next/Turbopack's resolver) can't find
fflate when it walks up from the redirected js-mdict source location.
CI's fresh checkout exposes this; locally a leftover
packages/js-mdict/node_modules/fflate from the old workspace setup
masked it.
Pin fflate resolution to apps/readest-app/node_modules/fflate in:
- vitest.config.mts (Vite alias)
- next.config.mjs (webpack alias + Turbopack resolveAlias — Turbopack
rejects absolute paths so use a project-relative form)
- tsconfig.json (paths entry so tsgo / Biome see it)
Verified by deleting packages/js-mdict/node_modules locally and
re-running pnpm test (3396 pass), pnpm lint (clean), and both
pnpm build-web and a tauri-platform Next build (clean).
