Plenty of strings are legitimately identical in the target language - "Vsync",
"Status", "Ad Hoc multiplayer" - but the only test we had for "is this
translated" is "does it differ from English", so those got sent to the AI again
on every single run of finish-language-with-ai, costing tokens and giving it
another chance to translate something that shouldn't be.
They now get a "# same as English" comment and are skipped. finish-language-with-ai
writes it when the AI hands the English string back unchanged (which the
validation added earlier was throwing away as an error), and import-single writes
it when a language's line matches the en_US one. Deleting the comment puts the
key back in play.
Also stop comparing values with their comments still attached while working out
what's untranslated, which was leaking "# AI translated" into the context block
of the prompt.

It skipped the reference file, so adding a new string meant running
add-new-key-value first just to get the key into en_US.ini (and, as a side
effect, the English text into all 46 other files whether they were about to be
translated or not). Now an en_US line in the imported file is treated like any
other language, minus the "AI translated" comment, since that one is the string
the others were translated from rather than a translation.
So the workflow is one command plus validate. Languages left out of the import
simply don't get the key, and fall back to the English string at runtime -
copy-missing-lines is still there if you want the placeholder written out.
Instructions in AGENTS.md and the /add-string command updated to match.

finish-language-with-ai maps the English string the AI translated back to the
key it belongs to, but the map was keyed on the English string, so when two keys
in a section share one - [Graphics] "Texture Filter" and "Texture Filtering",
[Error] "Error reading file" and "The file is not a valid zip file" - only the
last one survived and the other silently never got its translation.
Map to a list of keys instead and update all of them, and stop sending the same
line to the AI twice while we're at it.

Placeholders like %1 and %d have to survive translation intact, and they don't
always: the new "validate" command finds 37 strings across four language files
where one got dropped, localized into another script, or split with a space.
It also catches empty translations, line breaks and stray quotes, and exits
non-zero so it can be used as a check in a script.
The same checks now run on everything the AI returns, before it's written to a
file - plus a check that it didn't just echo the English string back at us. A
language that fails is skipped instead of aborting the whole run.

New claude.rs talks to the Anthropic Messages API, and ai.rs picks between the
two providers. The provider is chosen with --provider, or guessed from the model
name, or from whichever of ANTHROPIC_API_KEY/OPENAI_API_KEY is set.
Also update the dependencies (and bump the clap requirement to 4.6).
