* automate feature
* Moved all providers to app level to simplify homepage
* Circular dependency fixes
* You will see that now toolRegistry gets a tool config and a tool
settings object. These enable automate to run the tools using as much
static code as possible.

# Description of Changes
Because we used string typing for IDs and names, it was really easy to
make mistakes where variables named like `subcategory` would be stored
as an ID in one file, but then read assuming it's a name in another
file. This PR changes the code to consistently use enum cases when
referring to IDs of categories, subcategories, and tools (at least in as
many places as I can find them, ~I had to add a `ToolId` enum for this
work~ I originally added a `ToolId` type for this work, but it caused
too many issues when merging with #4222 so I've pulled it back out for
now).
Making that change made it obvious where we were inconsistently passing
IDs and reading them as names etc. allowing me to fix rendering issues
in the All Tools pane, where the subcategory IDs were being rendered
directly (instead of being translated) or where IDs were being
translated into names, but were then being re-translated, causing
warnings in the log.
# Description of Changes
A new universal file context rather than the splintered ones for the
main views, tools and manager we had before (manager still has its own
but its better integreated with the core context)
File context has been split it into a handful of different files
managing various file related issues separately to reduce the monolith -
FileReducer.ts - State management
fileActions.ts - File operations
fileSelectors.ts - Data access patterns
lifecycle.ts - Resource cleanup and memory management
fileHooks.ts - React hooks interface
contexts.ts - Context providers
Improved thumbnail generation
Improved indexxedb handling
Stopped handling files as blobs were not necessary to improve
performance
A new library handling drag and drop
https://github.com/atlassian/pragmatic-drag-and-drop (Out of scope yes
but I broke the old one with the new filecontext and it needed doing so
it was a might as well)
A new library handling virtualisation on page editor
@tanstack/react-virtual, as above.
Quickly ripped out the last remnants of the old URL params stuff and
replaced with the beginnings of what will later become the new URL
navigation system (for now it just restores the tool name in url
behavior)
Fixed selected file not regestered when opening a tool
Fixed png thumbnails
Closes #(issue_number)

# Description of Changes
This pull request introduces dynamic document meta tag management and
improves URL routing and tool metadata handling in the frontend. The
most significant changes are the addition of a custom hook to update
document meta tags (including OpenGraph tags) based on the selected
tool, enhancements to the tool selection context for better URL
synchronization, and enrichment of the `Tool` type and tool registry
with more metadata.
**Dynamic document meta management:**
* Added a new `useDocumentMeta` hook that updates the page's `<title>`,
description, and OpenGraph meta tags based on the currently selected
tool, and restores the original values on cleanup.
(`frontend/src/hooks/useDocumentMeta.ts`)
* Integrated `useDocumentMeta` into `HomePageContent` so the document's
meta tags dynamically reflect the selected tool's metadata, improving
SEO and social sharing. (`frontend/src/pages/HomePage.tsx`)

**Tool metadata and context improvements:**
* Enhanced the `Tool` type and tool registry to include `title` and
`description` fields, which are now translated and used throughout the
UI and meta tags. (`frontend/src/types/tool.ts`,
`frontend/src/hooks/useToolManagement.tsx`)

* Updated the `ToolWorkflowContext` to use the new `Tool` type for
`selectedTool`, replacing the previous `ToolConfiguration` type.
(`frontend/src/contexts/ToolWorkflowContext.tsx`)
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-9b36e2c06dddbcfba6cb66fd0b303b7860f88ca8b562bb2534af1ab50390d385L6-R8)

**URL routing and synchronization:**
* Implemented logic in `ToolWorkflowContext` to synchronize the selected
tool with the browser URL, initialize tool selection from the URL on
load, and handle browser navigation (back/forward) for tool selection.
(`frontend/src/contexts/ToolWorkflowContext.tsx`)

Component Extraction & Context Refactor - Summary
🔧 What We Did
- Extracted HomePage's 286-line monolithic component into focused parts
- Created ToolPanel (105 lines) for tool selection UI
- Created Workbench (203 lines) for view management
- Created ToolWorkflowContext (220 lines) for centralized state
- Reduced HomePage to 60 lines of provider setup
- Eliminated all prop drilling - components use contexts directly
🏆 Why This is Good
- Maintainability: Each component has single purpose, easy
debugging/development
- Architecture: Clean separation of concerns, future features easier to
add
- Code Quality: 105% more lines but organized/purposeful vs tangled
spaghetti code
