Implements micro-UX improvements focused on accessibility (a11y) per the "Palette" persona requirements. Changes are under 50 lines and use existing Bootstrap patterns without introducing new dependencies.

Key improvements:

  • Screen readers can now correctly associate form labels with dropdowns.
  • Keyboard-only users can navigate to the dropzone, see focus state highlights, and trigger file selection via Enter/Space.
  • Assistive technologies will now announce status changes and progress bar updates during file translation.

PR created automatically by Jules for task 5234568724926542762 started by @Nawayisus

* Added `for` attributes mapping form labels to their inputs.
* Transformed the custom `#dropZone` element into an accessible, focusable button with `tabindex="0"`, `role="button"`, and explicit `click`/`keydown` event handlers.
* Bound drag-and-drop highlight UI to keyboard `focus`/`blur` events.
* Added `aria-live` to the progress container and dynamically updated `aria-valuenow`.
* Added journal entry regarding custom dropzone accessibility patterns in `.Jules/palette.md`.
