# Description of Changes
Reduce boilerplate in tool frontends by creating a base frontend hook
for the simple tools to use.
I've done all the simple tools here. It'd be nice to add in some of the
more complex tools as well in the future if we can figure out how.
* 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
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)

Implement Add Password and Change Permissions tools in V2 (both in one
because Change Permissions is a fake endpoint which just calls Add
Password behind the scenes).

# Description of Changes
This pull request introduces significant updates to the file selection
logic, tool rendering, and file context management in the frontend
codebase. The changes aim to improve modularity, enhance
maintainability, and streamline the handling of file-related operations.
Key updates include the introduction of a new `FileSelectionContext`,
refactoring of file selection logic, and updates to tool management and
rendering.
### File Selection Context and Logic Refactor:
* Added a new `FileSelectionContext` to centralize file selection state
and provide utility hooks for managing selected files, selection limits,
and tool mode. (`frontend/src/contexts/FileSelectionContext.tsx`,
[frontend/src/contexts/FileSelectionContext.tsxR1-R77](diffhunk://#diff-bda35f1aaa5eafa0a0dc48e0b1270d862f6da360ba1241234e891f0ca8907327R1-R77))
* Replaced local file selection logic in `FileEditor` with context-based
logic, improving consistency and reducing duplication.
(`frontend/src/components/fileEditor/FileEditor.tsx`,
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-481d0a2d8a1714d34d21181db63a020b08dfccfbfa80bf47ac9af382dff25310R63-R70)
[[2]](diffhunk://#diff-481d0a2d8a1714d34d21181db63a020b08dfccfbfa80bf47ac9af382dff25310R404-R438)
### Tool Management and Rendering:
* Refactored `ToolRenderer` to use a `Suspense` fallback for lazy-loaded
tools, improving user experience during tool loading.
(`frontend/src/components/tools/ToolRenderer.tsx`,
[frontend/src/components/tools/ToolRenderer.tsxL32-L64](diffhunk://#diff-2083701113aa92cd1f5ce1b4b52cc233858e31ed7bcf39c5bfb1bcc34e99b6a9L32-L64))
* Simplified `ToolPicker` by reusing the `ToolRegistry` type, reducing
redundancy. (`frontend/src/components/tools/ToolPicker.tsx`,
[frontend/src/components/tools/ToolPicker.tsxL4-R4](diffhunk://#diff-e47deca9132018344c159925f1264794acdd57f4b65e582eb9b2a4ea69ec126dL4-R4))
### File Context Enhancements:
* Introduced a utility function `getFileId` for consistent file ID
extraction, replacing repetitive inline logic.
(`frontend/src/contexts/FileContext.tsx`,
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-95b3d103fa434f81fdae55f2ea14eda705f0def45a0f2c5754f81de6f2fd93bcR25)
[[2]](diffhunk://#diff-95b3d103fa434f81fdae55f2ea14eda705f0def45a0f2c5754f81de6f2fd93bcL101-R102)
* Updated `FileContextProvider` to use more specific types for PDF
documents, enhancing type safety.
(`frontend/src/contexts/FileContext.tsx`,
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-95b3d103fa434f81fdae55f2ea14eda705f0def45a0f2c5754f81de6f2fd93bcL350-R351)
[[2]](diffhunk://#diff-95b3d103fa434f81fdae55f2ea14eda705f0def45a0f2c5754f81de6f2fd93bcL384-R385)
### Compression Tool Enhancements:
* Added blob URL cleanup logic to the compression hook to prevent memory
leaks. (`frontend/src/hooks/tools/compress/useCompressOperation.ts`,
[frontend/src/hooks/tools/compress/useCompressOperation.tsR58-L66](diffhunk://#diff-d7815fea0e89989511ae1786f7031cba492b9f2db39b7ade92d9736d1bd4b673R58-L66))
* Adjusted file ID generation in the compression operation to handle
multiple files more effectively.
(`frontend/src/hooks/tools/compress/useCompressOperation.ts`,
[frontend/src/hooks/tools/compress/useCompressOperation.tsL90-R102](diffhunk://#diff-d7815fea0e89989511ae1786f7031cba492b9f2db39b7ade92d9736d1bd4b673L90-R102))
