The branch-protection delete feature (#696/#728) added a second
"repo.settings.event_delete" entry ("Branch Deletion") to locale_en-US.json,
reusing the existing webhook-event key (value "Delete"). The old JSON decoder
silently kept the last value; Go 1.26's jsonv2 decoder rejects duplicate
object keys, so InitLocales fails ("duplicate object member name
repo.settings.event_delete") and the server crash-loops at startup. Like the
code-scanner regexp panic, this only surfaces on a fresh boot, which is why it
shipped unnoticed.
Give the branch-protection section header its own key
"repo.settings.protect_branch_deletion" and point protected_branch.tmpl at it,
so the webhook "Delete" label and the branch-protection "Branch Deletion"
header both render correctly and the JSON has no duplicate. Verified: no
duplicate keys remain in any options/locale/*.json.
