c546a33eff Show native save dialogs in desktop app #50, #264
This commit introduces native operating system file dialogs in the
desktop application replacing the existing web-based dialogs.

It lays the foundation for future enhancements such as:

- Providing error messages when saving or executing files, addressing
  #264.
- Creating system restore points, addressing #50.

Documentation updates:

- Update `desktop-vs-web-features.md` with added functionality.
- Update `README.md` with security feature highlights.
- Update home page documentation to emphasize security features.

Other supporting changes include:

- Integrate IPC communication channels for secure Electron dialog API
  interactions.
- Refactor `IpcRegistration` for more type-safety and simplicity.
- Introduce a Vue hook to encapsulate dialog functionality.
- Improve errors during IPC registration for easier troubleshooting.
- Move `ClientLoggerFactory` for consistency in hooks organization and
  remove `LoggerFactory` interface for simplicity.
- Add tests for the save file dialog in the browser context.
- Add `Blob` polyfill in tests to compensate for the missing
  `blob.text()` function in `jsdom` (see jsdom/jsdom#2555).

Improve environment detection logic:

- Treat test environment as browser environments to correctly activate
  features based on the environment. This resolves issues where the
  environment is misidentified as desktop, but Electron preloader APIs
  are missing.
- Rename `isDesktop` environment identification variable to
  `isRunningAsDesktopApplication` for better clarity and to avoid
  confusion with desktop environments in web/browser/test environments.
- Simplify `BrowserRuntimeEnvironment` to consistently detect
  non-desktop application environments.
- Improve environment detection for Electron main process
  (electron/electron#2288).

728584240c Fix touch, cursor and accessibility in slider
This commit improves the horizontal slider between the generated code
area and the script list. It enhances interaction, accessibility and
performance. It provides missing touch responsiveness, improves
accessibility by using better HTML semantics, introduces throttling and
refactors cursor handling during drag operations with added tests.

These changes provides smoother user experience, better support for
touch devices, reduce load during interactions and ensure the
component's behavior is intuitive and accessible across different
devices and interactions.

- Fix horizontal slider not responding to touch events.
- Improve slider handle to be a `<button>` for improved accessibility
  and native browser support, improving user interaction and keyboard
  support.
- Add throttling in the slider for performance optimization, reducing
  processing load during actions.
- Fix losing dragging state cursor on hover over page elements such as
  input boxes and buttons during dragging.
- Separate dragging logic into its own compositional hook for clearer
  separation of concerns.
- Refactor global cursor mutation process.
- Increase robustness in global cursor changes by preserving and
  restoring previous cursor style to prevent potential side-effects.
- Use Vue 3.2 feature for defining cursor CSS style in `<style>`
  section.
- Expand unit test coverage for horizontal slider, use MouseEvent and
  type cast it to PointerEvent as MouseEvent is not yet supported by
  `jsdom` (see jsdom/jsdom#2527).
