Problem

Despite the i18n system being fully in place, a significant number of user-visible strings are still hardcoded:

File	Estimate	Examples
`main.go`	~50	dialog titles, button labels, status messages
`internal/ui/command_editor.go`	~15	"Ready", dialog strings
`internal/ui/benchmarkview.go`	~20	"CPU:", "GPU:", benchmark labels

Fix

For each file: grep for widget.NewLabel(", widget.NewButton(", dialog.Show....(" and replace with t.KeyName references. Add missing keys to internal/i18n/strings.go, en_ca.go, fr_ca.go, and machine-generated Inuktitut placeholders.

See docs/localization-policy.md for the full process.
