[V2] feat(pdfa): add PDF/A-3b option with updated descriptions and translations (#5286)
# Description of Changes


This pull request adds support for the PDF/A-3b format in the PDF/A
conversion tool, updates the user interface to reflect this new option,
and enhances the translation strings to clarify the differences between
the PDF/A variants.

**PDF/A-3b support and UI update:**

* Added PDF/A-3b as an option in the PDF/A output format dropdown in
`ConvertToPdfaSettings.tsx`.
* Updated the PDF/A options note to mention that PDF/A-3b supports
embedded files, improving user guidance in both the UI and translation
strings.

**Localization improvements:**

* Added and updated relevant translation keys and values for PDF/A-3b
support and improved descriptions in both the TOML and JavaScript i18n
config files.
