feat: add i18n support (en/zh) and enhance webhook notifications with custom templates

This PR introduces two major enhancements:

1. Internationalization (i18n) Support

Adds react-i18next and i18next for robust translation management
Provides full English and Chinese (en/zh) translations across all modules
Replaces all hardcoded UI strings with t() translation calls
Introduces a LanguageSwitcher component in the navbar for seamless language toggling
Organizes translations into namespaces: common, database, storage, notifier, backup, restore, healthcheck, user

2. Advanced Webhook Notification Templates

Adds a custom_template field to the webhook_notifiers table (with DB migration)
Refactors the notification system to use map[string]string for fine-grained variables
Supports powerful recursive JSON template parsing with variable replacement
Introduces granular variables:
{{status}}, {{status_text}}, {{database_name}}, {{duration}}, {{size}}, {{error}}
(while maintaining backward compatibility with {{heading}} and {{message}})
Updates all notifier types (email, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Teams) to use the new variable system
Frontend improvements:
- Custom template editor with toggle switch
- 8 variable insertion buttons with tooltips
- Real-time preview of example webhook requests
- Support for both POST (JSON body) and GET (query params) methods
- Preset template for WeWork (企业微信) to ease enterprise integration

These changes enable users to fully customize notification formats and localize the UI—critical for global deployments and integrations with systems like DingTalk, WeWork, and internal enterprise tools.
