The overrideWarnings escape hatch added alongside the bundle scan was
API-only: an admin uploading a crypto plugin through the web form hit a
400 with canOverride and had no way to act on it, which left S/MIME and
PGP bundles uninstallable through the UI.
Hold the rejected file client-side and show the findings — pattern per
file — with "Install anyway" and "Cancel". Proceeding re-posts the same
file with overrideWarnings, so the decision stays explicit and lands in
the audit log. The route now echoes accepted findings back on success so
the confirmation says how many were waved through rather than reporting a
bare install.
Also replaces a dead `data.warnings` read with the live `findings` field;
the route never returned `warnings` on success, so that branch never ran.
Completes B-01.

Two problems with the upload scanner, pulling in opposite directions.
It only scanned the entrypoint, so a bundle with `eval()` in a second
file passed outright — verified against a synthetic bundle whose
vendor/openpgp.js tripped three patterns while index.js stayed clean.
At the same time, a hard 400 on eval()/new Function()/innerHTML= makes
every crypto plugin uninstallable: minified openpgp.js and pkijs
legitimately contain all three. That blocks S/MIME and PGP entirely.
Scan every .js/.mjs in the bundle and return structured findings
({file, patterns[]}) plus canOverride, so the admin can see exactly what
tripped and where. An explicit overrideWarnings=true proceeds and writes
a plugin.install.scan_override audit entry recording which patterns in
which files were accepted — not merely that an override happened.
This route is already admin-authenticated, so the scan is defence in
depth against an accidental or compromised upload, not a trust boundary.
Treating it as the latter is what made crypto plugins uninstallable.
Also log the B-04 and B-01 divergences in vnc/VNC-CHANGES.md.

The plugin runtime received the active locale (init payload + 'locale-change')
and plugins could declare a `locales` map, but none of it was usable: the
locales never reached the runtime, and buildPluginApi exposed no i18n. So
plugin code calling pluginApi.i18n.t(...) (as the External Link Warning plugin
does) always got undefined and fell back to English.
Thread plugin locales end to end and surface an i18n API:
- ServerPlugin gains `locales`; the upload route persists manifest.locales
(alongside configSchema/settingsSchema), and /api/plugins surfaces it to the
client so it flows registry -> client -> sandbox host-bridge -> runtime.
- runtime sets __PLUGIN_LOCALE__ at init (not only on later 'locale-change')
and buildPluginApi exposes `i18n.locale` + `i18n.t(key, vars)` resolving
against the plugin's declared locales (manifest.locales) with English/key
fallback and {placeholder} interpolation.
Lets any sandboxed plugin localize its strings from its manifest.
