- Added query to fetch library file details in PrintModal
- Updated backend FileResponse schema to include metadata fields (print_name, print_time_seconds, filament_used_grams, sliced_for_model)
- Updated backend get_file endpoint to extract and return metadata fields
- Updated frontend LibraryFile interface to include metadata fields
- Now slicedForModel is properly extracted from both archives and library files

Introduces a new "Proxy Mode" for the Virtual Printer that enables
remote printing from anywhere in the world without VPN, port forwarding,
or Bambu Cloud dependency.
Bambuddy acts as a TLS relay between a remote slicer (Bambu Studio/
OrcaSlicer) and the local Bambu Lab printer:
Remote Slicer → Internet → Bambuddy Server → Local Network → Printer
The slicer connects to Bambuddy using the real printer's serial number
and access code. Bambuddy authenticates and relays all FTP (file transfer)
and MQTT (commands/status) traffic with end-to-end TLS encryption.
- No port forwarding required - printer stays safely on local network
- No VPN needed - connect from coffee shops, hotels, work, anywhere
- No Bambu Cloud dependency - fully self-hosted solution
- End-to-end TLS encryption on FTP (port 9990) and MQTT (port 8883)
- Works with Bambu Studio and OrcaSlicer
- Uses real printer credentials for authentication
- Automatic printer selection from connected printers
- Add SlicerProxyManager class for TLS relay (tcp_proxy.py)
- TLS termination with auto-generated certificates
- Concurrent FTP and MQTT proxy servers
- Connection lifecycle management with proper cleanup
- Extend VirtualPrinterManager with proxy mode support
- New 'proxy' mode alongside archive/review/queue modes
- Target printer selection and credential management
- Add proxy configuration endpoints to settings API
- Add permission checks for proxy endpoints
- Add Proxy Mode card to Virtual Printer settings
- Target printer dropdown for proxy destination
- Real-time proxy status display (ports, target, running state)
- Full i18n support (English, German)
- Add network architecture diagram
- Add proxy mode section to README
- Add comprehensive guide to wiki
- Add prominent feature section to website
- Backend unit tests for SlicerProxyManager
- Backend unit tests for proxy mode configuration
- Frontend tests for proxy mode UI components
Closes#207#170
