* Host the manual's images in the repo under manual/images

Replaces all learn.omacom.io/manual.omakub.org hotlinks with local webp
files capped at 1600px wide (~20MB total), so the manual is fully
self-contained. Theme and unlock previews are converted from the
canonical themes/*/preview.png files. A handful of illustration shots
are interim conversions of the current images, pending retakes.

* Retake the illustration screenshots fresh at 3x scaling

Navigation, clipboard history, notices, tmux layouts, prompt, and About
reshot on a clean workspace at 3.13x (1920x1080 logical on 6K) across
ten themes: Tokyo Night, Catppuccin, Gruvbox, Kanagawa, Everforest,
Nord, Osaka Jade, Rose Pine, Matte Black, and Ristretto.

* Drop the extra themes chapter from the manual

The community theme gallery will live elsewhere. Removes the chapter
and its 114 gallery images, renumbers the following chapters, and
repoints the two references (theme installs still work via
Install > Style > Theme in the menu).

* Reference the shipped theme previews instead of copying them

The themes chapter now points straight at themes/*/preview.png and
preview-unlock.png, so previews can never drift from the source and
manual/images drops from 6.3MB to 3.5MB.

# Text Extraction & Dictation
### Text Extraction
Hit `Super + Ctrl + PrtScr` to select a region on the screen for text extraction. The tesseract open source OCR model will then quickly convert that selection into text and place it on the clipboard. Then you just hit `Super + V` to paste.
This is very helpful for grabbing addresses out of image footers or phone numbers embedded in website headlines.

### Dictation
Omarchy offers AI dictation via [Voxtype](https://voxtype.io/). You install it via _Install > AI > Dictation_ through the Omarchy menu. By default, it'll load a base English model that takes up 150MB. But you can tweak which model you'd like to use by running `voxtype setup model` in the terminal. And you can tweak all the settings via `~/.config/voxtype/config.toml`.
Once installed, you dictate by holding down `F9` or by toggling with `Super + Ctrl + X`, and the dictated text will appear in the focused input area.
