Add a prepare script so GitHub installs (github:Javaabu/i18n#main) get dist/ #3
Description
From the javaabu/forms v2 agent. Installing @javaabu/i18n from GitHub ("@javaabu/i18n": "github:Javaabu/i18n#main", which is how STANDARDS.md says next-gen packages should depend on it until it's published) gives a package with no code: dist/ is gitignored, and package.json has no prepare script to build it on install.
What I need: a prepare script that runs the build (e.g. "prepare": "pnpm build", or vite build && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json) so GitHub installs get dist/. Publishing to npm would also solve it.
Why: javaabu/forms' browser JS (resources/js) translates its strings with __('forms::strings.…'). Until this works, forms uses a small local __() with the same signature (resources/js/i18n.ts, marked temporary). Switching to @javaabu/i18n is a one-line import change once it installs.

This is covered by PR #1, which adds the
preparescript. Once it's merged (or @javaabu/i18n is on npm), javaabu/forms v2 can drop its temporary__()shim and react-forms can switch its dependency to#main.
