Introduce BookSettings utility for per-book settings stored in
the book's cache directory (book_settings.bin). Add "Letterbox Fill"
option to the EPUB reader menu that cycles Default/Dithered/Solid/None.
At sleep time, the per-book override is loaded and takes precedence
over the global setting for all book types (EPUB, XTC, TXT).

Replace bookmark stubs with full add/remove/navigate implementation:
- BookmarkStore: per-book binary persistence on SD card with v2 format
supporting text snippets (backward-compatible with v1)
- Visual bookmark ribbon indicator drawn on bookmarked pages via fillPolygon
- Reader menu dynamically shows Add/Remove Bookmark based on current page state
- Bookmark selection activity with chapter name, first sentence snippet, and
page number display; long-press to delete with confirmation
- Go to Bookmark falls back to Table of Contents when no bookmarks exist
- Smart snippet extraction: skips partial sentences (lowercase first word)
to capture the first full sentence on the page
- Label truncation reserves space for page suffix so it's never cut off
- Half refresh forced on menu exit to clear popup/menu artifacts

adapted from upstream PR #857 with /.dictionary/ folder path,
std::vector compatibility (PR #802), HTML definition rendering,
orientation-aware button hints, side button hints with CCW text
rotation, sparse index caching to SD card, pronunciation line
filtering, and reorganized reader menu with bookmark stubs.

This PR unifies navigation handling & adds system-wide support for
continuous navigation.
## Summary
Holding down a navigation button now continuously advances through items
until the button is released. This removes the need for repeated
press-and-release actions and makes navigation faster and smoother,
especially in long menus or documents.
When page-based navigation is available, it will navigate through pages.
If not, it will progress through menu items or similar list-based UI
elements.
Additionally, this PR fixes inconsistencies in wrap-around behavior and
navigation index calculations.
Places where the navigation system was updated:
- Home Page
- Settings Pages
- My Library Page
- WiFi Selection Page
- OPDS Browser Page
- Keyboard
- File Transfer Page
- XTC Chapter Selector Page
- EPUB Chapter Selector Page
I’ve tested this on the device as much as possible and tried to match
the existing behavior. Please let me know if I missed anything. Thanks 🙏

Following the request from @osteotek and @daveallie for system-wide
support, the old PR (#379) has been closed in favor of this
consolidated, system-wide implementation.

## Summary
When uploading or downloading an updated ebook from SD/WebUI/OPDS with
same the filename the `.crosspoint` cache is not cleared. This can lead
to issues with the Table of Contents and hangs when switching between
chapters.
I encountered this issue in two places:
- When I need to do further ePub cleaning using Calibre after I load an
ePub and find that some of its formatting should be cleaned up. When I
reprocess the same book and want to place it back in the same location I
need a way to invalidate the cache.
- When syncing RSS feed generated epubs. I generate news ePubs with
filenames like `news-outlet.epub` and so every day when I fetch new news
the crosspoint cache needs to be cleared to load that file.
This change offers the following features:
- On web uploads, if the file already exists, the cache for that file is
cleared
- On OPDS downloads, if the file already exists, the cache for that file
is cleared
- There's now an action for `Clear Cache` in the Settings page which can
clear the cache for all books

## Summary
Adds support for browsing and downloading books from a Calibre-web
server via OPDS.
How it works
1. Configure server URL in Settings → Calibre Web URL (e.g.,
https://myserver.com:port I use Cloudflare tunnel to make my server
accessible anywhere fwiw)
2. "Calibre Library" will now show on the the home screen
3. Browse the catalog - navigate through categories like "By Newest",
"By Author", "By Series", etc.
4. Download books - select a book and press Confirm to download the EPUB
to your device
Navigation
- Up/Down - Move through entries
- Confirm - Open folder or download book
- Back - Go to parent catalog, or exit to home if at root
- Navigation entries show with > prefix, books show title and author
- Button hints update dynamically ("Open" for folders, "Download" for
books)
Technical details
- Fetches OPDS catalog from {server_url}/opds
- Parses both navigation feeds (catalog links) and acquisition feeds
(downloadable books)
- Maintains navigation history stack for back navigation
- Handles absolute paths in OPDS links correctly (e.g.,
/books/opds/navcatalog/...)
- Downloads EPUBs directly to the SD card root
Note
The server URL should be typed to include https:// if the server
requires it - HTTP→HTTPS redirects may cause SSL errors on ESP32.
## Additional Context
* I also changed the home titles to use uppercase for each word and
added a setting to change the size of the side margins
