Pull Request: Custom Braille Table & Real-Time Translation
Following Liblouis documentation, I built a self-contained custom_table.tbl (~1500 lines) by consolidating rules for character definitions, computer Braille, literary digits, patterns, and emphasis, removing include statements and absolute paths for portability. This resolved Cannot resolve table errors. I upgraded TestingWidget.py by fixing UTF-16 encoding bugs (using UTF-8 input_bytes), eliminating LOUIS_TABLEPATH, and enabling real-time text-to-Braille translation via textChanged signal (e.g., hi → ⠓⠊). The widget optimizes temp file handling, uses louis.checkTable to debug compilation errors, and removes tempCodeRunnerFile.py to fix mode 2 issues. Tested with CLI (lou_checktable, lou_translate) and app, ensuring portability and reliability.
