Preserve UI Language for Bookmarks

Problem:
Bookmarks saved from Twitter/X capture the post's original language text, not the translated text displayed in the user's UI. This renders bookmarks unsearchable if the user relies on keywords from the translated version they saw while browsing.
Proposed Solution:
When saving a Twitter/X post, Dewey should capture or generate the text in the user's language. Ideal implementations could include:
Storing both the original and translated text for search and display.
Performing automatic translation on the backend upon saving.
Benefit:
Ensures search functionality and content recall work as expected for the user, matching the language experience they had when deciding to bookmark the content.
