general_default_language is stored as a JSON string (e.g. "\"pt\"").
getRecipientLanguage() returned the raw value including quotes, causing
the translation lookup to miss every match and fall back to English.

Accented chars (ã, ç, é, etc.) were silently dropped by the slug
regex because \w only matches ASCII. NFD decomposition + combining
mark removal converts them to ASCII equivalents instead.

When navigating to the Settings page, useSettingsState called
i18n.changeLanguage() with the server-stored general_default_language
value on every settings query resolution. This caused the admin UI
language to reset to the server default (e.g. "en") regardless of the
language the user had selected via the LanguageSelector.
The general_default_language setting is intended as the default for
public galleries, not for controlling the admin UI language. The admin
UI language is already persisted via localStorage through
i18next-browser-languagedetector and should not be overridden by server
settings.
Remove the i18n.changeLanguage() call from the useEffect that
initialises settings state from the API response.
