Resolution from PR #4555 review: Revert to text inputs for locale-specific
tax rate fields.
The type='number' attribute was added in commit 42ba39d29, but it caused
issues with locale-specific decimal separators. Browsers submit type='number'
inputs as dot-decimal regardless of locale, which breaks comma-decimal locales.
Solution: Revert to text inputs which use to_tax_decimals() for display
and parse_tax() for saving, correctly handling locale-specific formatting.
Changes:
- tax_config.php: Remove type='number', step, min, max attributes
- tax_config.php: Restore to_tax_decimals() for value display
- Config.php: Restore parse_tax() for tax rate parsing
- ConfigTest.php: Remove tests added for the type='number' approach
Fixes#4553
The display fix (using (float) instead of to_tax_decimals()) was
correct but incomplete. The save path in Config.php also needed
fixing because parse_tax() misinterprets dot-decimal values from
type="number" inputs when locale uses comma as decimal separator.
Root cause: Browsers submit type="number" inputs as dot-decimal
(e.g., "5.5") regardless of locale. With comma-decimal locales
like de_DE, parse_tax() treats the dot as thousands separator,
causing 5.5 to be saved as 5.
Fix: Replace parse_tax() with direct (float) cast for these
inputs since type="number" already guarantees dot-decimal format.
Includes tests for tax rate handling with various decimal values.

Add validation for the mailpath POST parameter to prevent command injection
attacks. The path is validated to only allow alphanumeric characters,
underscores, dashes, forward slashes, and dots.
- Required mailpath when protocol is "sendmail"
- Validates format for all non-empty mailpath values
- Blocks common injection vectors: ; | & ` $() spaces newlines
- Added mailpath_invalid translation to all 43 language files
- Simplified validation logic to avoid redundant conditions
Files changed:
- app/Controllers/Config.php: Add regex validation with protocol check
- app/Language/*/Config.php: Add mailpath_invalid error message (43 languages)
- tests/Controllers/ConfigTest.php: Unit tests for validation
