## Summary
- Removes the vendored `picojpeg` library and rewrites
`JpegToBmpConverter` to use the already-present `JPEGDEC` (bitbank2)
dependency
- Eliminates the redundancy of having two JPEG decoders in the firmware
- All BMP output (headers, fixed-point scaling, Atkinson/Floyd-Steinberg
dithering) is identical to before — cached cover BMPs are unaffected
## Size impact
| | Before | After | Delta |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flash | 5,754,089 bytes (87.8%) | 5,744,777 bytes (87.7%) | **−9,312
bytes** |
| RAM | 95,212 bytes (29.1%) | 92,852 bytes (28.3%) | **−2,360 bytes** |
## Implementation notes
- `bmpDrawCallback` receives MCU-sized blocks from JPEGDEC (up to 16
rows × MCU-width), accumulates them into a pre-allocated `mcuBuf`, and
applies the same scaling + dithering logic once each MCU row is complete
- File I/O uses a file-scope static `FsFile*` (safe in single-threaded
embedded context) via JPEGDEC's open/read/seek callbacks — same pattern
as `JpegToFramebufferConverter`
- Added a 52 KB free-heap guard before allocating the JPEGDEC object
(~17 KB)
- `lib/picojpeg/` deleted (2,087 lines of C removed)
## Test plan
- [ ] Build compiles without warnings
- [ ] Cover art BMP cache regenerates correctly for EPUB books
- [ ] Home screen thumbnails (1-bit BMP path) render correctly
- [ ] Custom-size thumbnails (`jpegFileToBmpStreamWithSize`) render
correctly

## Summary
Previouls where ALL whitespace (and square brackes) removed from the
footnote link text, however some link texts are multiworded, like "`turn
to 252`" which were truncated into "`turnto252`", (an example from the
first book "Flight from the Dark" of the Lone Wolf book series by Joe
Dever, see [link](https://www.projectaon.org/en/Main/FlightFromTheDark))
* This change will only remove whitespaces from the beginning and end of
the string
so "` [ 12 ] `" will become "`12`" just like before, and "` turn to 252
`" will become "`turn to 252`".

## Summary
Make popups (like "Going to sleep") respect the current screen
orientation when shown from reader activities.
**What changes are included?**
- Apply reader orientation in SleepActivity before showing popup when
`lastSleepFromReader` is true
- Make popup Y-position proportional to screen height (7.5% for
BaseTheme, 16.5% for LyraTheme) instead of hardcoded pixel values,
ensuring correct positioning in both portrait and landscape modes.
- Add `isReaderActivity()` override to all reader sub-screens (menu,
chapter selection, percent selection, footnotes, QR display, KOReader
sync), so sleep popups rotate correctly when entering sleep from any
reader context.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?** (e.g., Implements the new feature for
file uploading.)
`DESTRUCTOR_CLOSES_FILE=1` is set in platformio.ini, which makes SdFat's
FsBaseFile destructor call close() automatically when a file goes out of
scope.
Three categories of file close calls remain untouched:
1. Close before Storage.remove() on the same path: ScreenshotUtil.cpp
closes the file before deleting it on write error. The remove might fail
if the file is still open.
2. Close before reopening the same variable: Epub.cpp writes a temp
NCX/nav file, closes it, then reopens it for reading. The
RecentBooksStore.cpp close before saveToFile() is the same pattern, it
rewrites the same file.
3. Close on member variables: BookMetadataCache.cpp (bookFile,
spineFile, tocFile), Section.cpp (file), XtcParser.cpp (m_file),
ZipFile.cpp (file). These persist beyond any single function scope, so
the destructor timing doesn't match the intended close point.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?** (e.g., Implements the new feature for
file uploading.)
Combining diacritical marks (U+0300–U+036F) were positioned using a
heuristic that centered them at the midpoint of the base glyph's
**advance width**. This worked acceptably for Bookerly but produced
visibly off-center marks for Noto Sans due to a fundamental difference
in how the two fonts design their combining mark metrics.
Builds on the work of #1037.
## The problem
The two built-in body fonts encode combining mark `left` offsets with
very different conventions:
| Mark | Bookerly `left` | Noto Sans `left` |
|---|---|---|
| U+0301 (acute) | -2 | -10 |
| U+0300 (grave) | -5 | -15 |
| U+0302 (circumflex) | -5 | -5 |
| U+0323 (dot below) | -2 | -11 |
Noto Sans uses large negative `left` values because its marks are
designed for placement at the post-advance cursor position, with `left`
pulling the bitmap back over the base glyph. Bookerly uses small offsets
because its marks sit closer to the glyph origin. The old `advance/2`
centering split the difference poorly — it happened to land close to
correct for Bookerly but placed Noto Sans marks roughly 6px left of
center on a typical lowercase letter.
There was also a bug in the vertical gap heuristic. It unconditionally
computed a `raiseBy` value to prevent above-baseline marks from
colliding with tall base glyphs, but it applied the same logic to
**below-baseline** marks like cedilla (U+0327), dot below (U+0323), and
ogonek (U+0328). For those marks, the math produced a large positive
raise (e.g., 24px for dot-below on 'a'), launching them above the
x-height instead of keeping them below the baseline.
## The fix
**Horizontal positioning**: Instead of centering at `advance/2`, align
the mark bitmap's visual midpoint directly over the base glyph bitmap's
visual midpoint. This uses the base glyph's actual `left` and `width`
rather than its advance width, producing correct results regardless of
how the font encodes its mark offsets.
**Vertical positioning**: The raise heuristic now checks `markTop -
markHeight > 0` and skips below-baseline marks entirely, leaving them at
their font-designed position.
**Consolidation**: The shared math is extracted into two `constexpr`
helpers (`combiningMark::centerOver` and
`combiningMark::raiseAboveBase`) in `EpdFontData.h`, eliminating the
previously triplicated inline calculations across `drawText`,
`drawTextRotated90CW`, and `getTextBounds`. The `MIN_COMBINING_GAP_PX`
constant is also centralized as `combiningMark::MIN_GAP_PX`.

The `/delete` webserver API now accepts the old `path` argument and maps
it to a JSON array element. It is made an error to provide both
arguments.
## Additional Context
* Add any other information that might be helpful for the reviewer

I have compiled, flashed, and tested this on master at commit
0245972132. Before this change, calibre
cannot delete books, either individually or in bulk.
After this change, it can do so successfully.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Adds OPDS search support, allowing users to search a catalog directly
from the book browser when the server exposes an OpenSearch template.
**What changes are included?**
- `OpdsParser`: parses the OpenSearch template URL from feed-level
`<link rel="search">` elements and exposes it via `getSearchTemplate()`
- `OpdsBookBrowserActivity`: fetches and stores the search template
after each feed load; shows a Search hint on the Left button when a
template is available; launches the existing `KeyboardEntryActivity` for
query input; URL-encodes the query and fetches the result feed
- Absolute search result URLs are handled correctly in `fetchFeed`
(skips prepending the server base URL)
- A `consumeConfirm` guard prevents the Confirm release that submits the
keyboard from immediately triggering a book download on the first
browsing frame after search results load
## Additional Context
- Search is silently unavailable if the server does not advertise an
OpenSearch template — no UI change in that case
- Tested against a Calibre-Web OPDS endpoint which exposes `<link
rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml">`
- The inline URL encoder in `performSearch` was necessary as
`StringUtils` has no such utility; worth considering extracting to
`StringUtils` in a follow-up
- No new dependencies introduced

Adds a PlatformIO pre-build script to patch JPEGDEC library. When
decoding progressive JPEGs with AC coefficients, MCU_SKIP (-8) causes
array index 0xFFFFF8, creating a wild pointer ~33MB past the sMCUs
array. The patch redirects pMCU to sMCUs[0] when MCU_SKIP is active,
preventing store-access faults while maintaining correct behavior for
JPEG_SCALE_EIGHTH decoding. Devices with larger framebuffers (like the
x3) (792×528 = 52,272 bytes vs 800×480 = 48,000 bytes) have less free
heap, shifting the allocation and changing where the wild pointer lands.
Commit 8628297 guarded the DC coefficient write (pMCU[0]) with if (iMCU
>= 0), which prevents crashes for progressive JPEGs whose first scan is
DC-only (iScanEnd == 0). However, if the first scan includes AC
coefficients (iScanEnd > 0), the AC decode loop still writes through the
wild pointer and crashes.
