/**
* Island-side i18n. This is the file that ships.
*
* The page carries its own copy: `Base.astro` emits one `<script type="application/json"
* data-i18n>` holding the current locale's client-facing keys, already resolved against
* English. So a Spanish page ships Spanish strings and no others, in the HTML it was
* going to send anyway. No second request, no catalog chunk per language, no waterfall
* before an island can draw a label, and nothing in a shared JS chunk that has to be
* one language for everybody.
*
* The alternative, a dynamic `import('./es.json')` keyed on locale, also avoids
* shipping three languages, but it costs a round trip on the critical path of every
* island and it leaves all three catalogs sitting in `dist/_astro/`. This does not.

* Read the payload out of the current document.

* Read every time rather than cached at module scope, because the view transition
* router swaps the document under this module without reloading it. An island that
* cached its translator on first load would keep drawing Spanish after the reader
* clicked through to a Dutch page. Islands call `useI18n()` inside their `onReady`
* setup, which runs again on every arrival, so this reads the page that is actually on
* screen.
