Miscellaneous Fixes (#20897)

* don't flatten the search result cache when updating

this would cause an infinite swr fetch if something was mutated and then fetch was called again

* Properly sort keys for recording summary in StorageMetrics

* tracked object description box tweaks

* Remove ability to right click on elements inside of face popup

* Update reprocess message

* don't show object track until video metadata is loaded

* fix blue line height calc for in progress events

* Use timeline tab by default for notifications but add a query arg for customization

* Try and improve notification opening behavior

* Reduce review item buffering behavior

* ensure logging config is passed to camera capture and tracker processes

* ensure on demand recording stops when browser closes

* improve active line progress height with resize observer

* remove icons and duplicate find similar link in explore context menu

* fix for initial broken image when creating trigger from explore

* display friendly names for triggers in toasts

* lpr and triggers docs updates

* remove icons from dropdowns in face and classification

* fix comma dangle linter issue

* re-add incorrectly removed face library button icons

* fix sidebar nav links on < 768px desktop layout

* allow text to wrap on mark as reviewed button

* match exact pixels

* clarify LPR docs

-Frigate can recognize license plates on vehicles and automatically add the detected characters to the `recognized_license_plate` field or a known name as a `sub_label` to tracked objects of type `car` or `motorcycle`. A common use case may be to read the license plates of cars pulling into a driveway or cars passing by on a street.
+Frigate can recognize license plates on vehicles and automatically add the detected characters to the `recognized_license_plate` field or a [known](#matching) name as a `sub_label` to tracked objects of type `car` or `motorcycle`. A common use case may be to read the license plates of cars pulling into a driveway or cars passing by on a street.
 
 LPR works best when the license plate is clearly visible to the camera. For moving vehicles, Frigate continuously refines the recognition process, keeping the most confident result. When a vehicle becomes stationary, LPR continues to run for a short time after to attempt recognition.
 
 When a plate is recognized, the details are:
 
-- Added as a `sub_label` (if known) or the `recognized_license_plate` field (if unknown) to a tracked object.
-- Viewable in the Review Item Details pane in Review (sub labels).
+- Added as a `sub_label` (if [known](#matching)) or the `recognized_license_plate` field (if unknown) to a tracked object.
+- Viewable in the Details pane in Review/History.
 - Viewable in the Tracked Object Details pane in Explore (sub labels and recognized license plates).
 - Filterable through the More Filters menu in Explore.
-- Published via the `frigate/events` MQTT topic as a `sub_label` (known) or `recognized_license_plate` (unknown) for the `car` or `motorcycle` tracked object.
-- Published via the `frigate/tracked_object_update` MQTT topic with `name` (if known) and `plate`.

 License plate recognition works by running AI models locally on your system. The YOLOv9 plate detector model and the OCR models ([PaddleOCR](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR)) are relatively lightweight and can run on your CPU or GPU, depending on your configuration. At least 4GB of RAM is required.
