Added desktop notifications for download events.
The browser now shows a system notification when a download:
completes successfully
is canceled
fails due to error
Each notification:
Uses a localized title and message (document.l10n.formatValue)
Falls back to plain strings if localization fails
Includes the downloaded file's path
Uses the standard download.svg icon
Can be toggled via the zen.downloads.download-notifications preference
This enhancement improves user feedback and aligns with modern UX expectations for background downloads.
