This PR implements several micro-UX and accessibility improvements focused on functional clarity and inclusive design:

  • Functional Win: Added a "Clear Rating" button next to the personal rating slider in the game detail header. Since native range inputs can't be easily reset to a 'null' state, this allows users to unset their rating effortlessly.
  • Accessibility (A11y):
    • Added descriptive aria-label and title attributes to all icon-only buttons, including the Quick Assign button on cards and the Favorite toggle.
    • Wrapped decorative emojis (🌐, 📁, 🎮, etc.) in <span aria-hidden="true"> to reduce noise for screen reader users.
    • Improved keyboard navigation visibility by adding focus-within:ring-2 to game card containers, ensuring the card is highlighted when internal tags or buttons are focused.
  • Polish:
    • Removed persistent debug console.log and console.warn statements.
    • Fixed pre-existing unused variable warnings that were blocking production builds.
    • Fully localized new strings in both English and French.

P2 Badge Preserve platform info for screen readers

In GameCard, the platform is conveyed only by platformIcon in card headers/overlays, but this commit marks that icon aria-hidden="true". Because there is no other textual platform label in the card content, assistive technologies now lose platform information in grid/compact/list cards, which is a functional accessibility regression rather than purely decorative hiding.
