This PR introduces two major optimizations for the TorBox debrid service to significantly reduce API latency and eliminate friction for uncached content.

TorBox Payload Slicing (Zero-Latency API Checks)

Problem: Previously, all scraped Wawacity/Darki links were hashed and sent to TorBox's /checkcached endpoint. Sending 100+ hashes caused high latency and risked rate limits. 8 Solution: Links are now pre-sorted using WAStream's quality_sort_key. We slice the array and only send the Top 15 best links to the TorBox API. The remaining links default to uncached, dropping API response times to milliseconds.

TorBox Auto-Cacher (Zero-Click Downloads)

Problem: Users had to manually guess which ⏳ (uncached) link was best and click it to trigger the background download.

Solution: Introduced a new trigger_auto_download method in torbox.py. If a user queries a movie/series and 0 cached TorBox streams are returned, WAStream automatically selects the absolute best uncached link and silently triggers a /createwebdownload (or usenet equivalent) in the background.

Configuration Toggle

The Auto-Cacher is entirely optional. Added an auto_cache property to the Pydantic data model and a sleek toggle in the Web UI (index.html) that only appears when TorBox is selected. 16 * Added English and French localization for the new toggle in translations.js.
