This commit ports PR Dimillian#2368 from upstream (@ianinx), allowing users to automatically extract and copy text from media attachments to use as alt text descriptions. Features: - Imported `VisionKit` and added a `Copy text from image` button to `MediaEditView`. - Implemented `generateText(url:)` which passes the downloaded image from `ImagePipeline` to `ImageAnalyzer` for optical character recognition. - Fully guarded the VisionKit invocation behind `#if canImport(VisionKit) && !os(visionOS)` to prevent compiler failures on visionOS targets. - Injected the missing `status.editor.media.copy-text` localization keys.

It doesn't use the live text feature for two reasons
Imageand using aUIImageViewin the place of theImagedidn't work easily to match the current designWith these reasons I thought just adding a second button was the easiest option.
