Add 'Duplicate' option to file context menu that creates a copy of the selected file in the same directory with automatic name deduplication. Changes: - Add 'duplicate' translation key to all 37 language files - Implement duplicate menu item in UIItem.js context menu - Use puter.fs.copy() API with dedupeName parameter for automatic unique filename generation (e.g., 'file (1).txt', 'file (2).txt') - Restrict duplicate option to files only (not directories) - Exclude duplicate option from trash and trashed items The feature leverages existing backend deduplication logic that automatically handles naming conflicts by appending sequential numbers to duplicate filenames.

Description

Problem Statement

Solution
Added a "Duplicate" menu item to the file context menu that:
