Local Translator v1.1.0 — Global Hotkeys, Clipboard Fix & Standalone Packaging

🌐 Local Translator v1.1.0

🚀 What's New & Improvements

📋 Clipboard Fixes

• Resolved 64-bit Memory Truncation: Fixed Windows API ctypes 64-bit handle truncation which caused silent access violations and prevented copying.
• Direct GUI Clipboard Integration: Primary copy actions now directly synchronize with QApplication.clipboard() with native Win32 fallback retry loop.
• Popup & Keyboard Shortcuts: Pressing Enter / Return inside the floating popup now reliably copies the translation, even when focused inside the text view.

⌨️ Global Hotkeys Management

• Master Toggle: Added a single master checkbox in Settings to enable or completely disable all global hotkeys at once.
• Interactive Remapping: Replaced static shortcuts with interactive QKeySequenceEdit fields for:
  • Popup Quick Translation (Default: Ctrl + Q)
  • In-Place Replace Translation (Default: Ctrl + Shift + Q)
  • Screen Snippet OCR (Default: Ctrl + Shift + S)
• Reset to Defaults: One-click Reset button to restore standard key bindings.
• Runtime Application: Modifying hotkeys updates the background listener immediately without requiring application restart.

📦 Packaging & Engine Stability

• Direct NllbTokenizer Import: Resolved PyInstaller lazy-loading issue (AutoTokenizer import error) in standalone frozen builds.
• Optimized Binary Size: Cleaned up unneeded dependencies from portable build.
