Portals can now override their name, page title and header text per
locale, with a fallback chain of locale override → default locale → base
value. Overrides are stored under portal.config.locale_translations and
validated with a JSON schema.
Editing is exposed as a "Localize content" action in each non-default
locale's menu on the Locale page, and all public-facing portal views
(classic + documentation layouts) render the localized values. The live
chat widget is also loaded in the active portal locale.

Adds the ability to translate help center articles to other languages using Captain's LLM infrastructure. Translated articles are created as drafts linked to the source article.
Fixes
https://linear.app/chatwoot/issue/CW-6901/translate-article-to-another-language
**How to test**
1. Navigate to Help Center → Articles for a portal with multiple locales
2. Click the three-dot menu on any article → "Translate"
3. Select a target language and category → click Translate
4. Switch to the target locale — the translated article appears as a
draft
5. Try translating the same article again — a warning shows the existing
translation with a link to open it in a new tab
6. Click "Overwrite and translate" to replace the existing translation

This adds a draft status for Help Center locales so teams can prepare
localized content in the dashboard without exposing those locales in the
public portal switcher until they are ready to publish.
Fixes: https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/10412
Closes: https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/10412
## Why
Teams need a way to work on locale-specific Help Center content ahead of
launch. The public portal should only show ready locales, while the
admin dashboard should continue to expose every allowed locale for
ongoing article and category work.
## What this change does
- Adds `draft_locales` to portal config as a subset of `allowed_locales`
- Hides drafted locales from the public portal language switchers while
keeping direct locale URLs working
- Keeps drafted locales fully visible in the admin dashboard for article
and category management
- Adds locale actions to move an existing locale to draft, publish a
drafted locale, and keep the default locale protected from drafting
- Adds a status dropdown when creating a locale so new locales can be
created as `Published` or `Draft`
- Returns each admin locale with a `draft` flag so the locale UI can
reflect the public visibility state
## Validation
- Seed a portal with multiple locales, draft one locale, and confirm the
public portal switcher hides it while `/hc/:slug/:locale` still loads
directly
- In the admin dashboard, confirm drafted locales still appear in the
locale list and remain selectable for articles and categories
- Create a new locale with `Draft` status and confirm it stays out of
the public switcher until published
- Move an existing locale back and forth between `Published` and `Draft`
and confirm the public switcher updates accordingly

# Pull Request Template
## Description
This PR fixes an issue with slug validation in the Help Center portal
settings. Previously, users were able to create or update slugs with
invalid characters such as spaces, slashes, and special symbols, which
cause help center to crash.
With this update, slug creation and updates are now properly validated.
Only slugs that match the allowed pattern will be accepted. No spaces,
underscores, slashes, or special characters are allowed.
Examples: **user**, **user-guide**

There were two warnings showing up on new teams page
1. `errorMessage` prop was getting invalid value, this was because were
short circuting the error message using `&&`, fixed it by using ternary
operator
2. `vue-i18n` has deprecated [rails
syntax](https://vue-i18n.intlify.dev/guide/essentials/syntax#rails-i18n-format),
fixed that warning by removing `%` before `{}` for interpolation
> Note: the `vue-i18n` deprecation needs to be handled, but we can do it
later
