Adjusted calculator to accomodate the custom tax rates for Spain and its subdivisions

Changed data structure of tax data to be more “DRY” and resilient to different countries tax calculations and nuances. Updated all *.jsonc files to reflect this change.
Fixed the display order of the “Country” selector so that they are alphabetic by the country’s name, not its two character iso-3166 code.
Corrected gb.jsonc data structure so that the median_income was in the correct spot and tax rates were being calcuated correctly for both Scotland and the rest of the UK.
Fetching currency conversion rates is now more robust and informative.
Added a custom “compact” currency formatter that appends “K” or “M” or “B” to numbers in the thousands, millions, or billions respectively to keep figures from overflowing (especially currencies with high inflations)
Theme Selector now lists themes in alphabetical order
Added the following countries 2024 tax data:
- China
- Pakistan
- Nigeria

Fixed an issue where the “You are Here” visual indicator in the Lifetime component was only showing up within working year spans. Now it shows up regardless.
Ensured the background and text colors for the Lifetime component are more legible regardless of user selected theme
The tax year selector is now “disabled” (greyed out) if there isn’t more than one year to select from (which is the case right now as I only have 2024 data)
Fixed an issue in which a user’s system theme (light or dark) wasn’t causing the theme selector to reactively select the matching theme. Now it does
Fixed a display issue in which the “Your Are Here” indicator on the Lifetime visualizer component would get cut off if it was too close to the left or right margins. Now the arrows and positioning are conditionally customized
Fixed an alignment problem with the header navigation
Refactored a currency formatting fuction so it can be used elsewhere, and tweaked the display of default income buttons so they are more mobile friendly
