feat(i18n): wire initI18n into production plugin startup

6ffea1bc3 added i18n with en/zh locales and plugin config support, but
the initI18n() call lived in the original src/index.ts. When src/index.ts
became an 18-line wrapper that delegates to
src/testing/create-plugin-module.ts createPluginModule(), the call site
was dropped on the floor. Result: i18n.locale config and LANG env both
ignored at runtime, every toast stayed English regardless of user
setting.

Inject initI18n as a managed dependency and call it in
createPluginModule() immediately after loadPluginConfig(), passing
pluginConfig.i18n?.locale through. Add an integration test that boots
the plugin with i18n.locale='zh' and asserts getLocale() returns 'zh'
and t('toast.task_completed') returns the Chinese string. Regression
locked - subsequent moves of the startup path will fail loudly.
