Improved: Composer vendor directory is now in .gitignore

New: Per-post asset loading controls (Modal Assets and Gallery Assets) with Auto-Detect and Loaded options
New: Added two wireframe Synced Patterns: “More Details” and “Terms & Conditions”.
Refactor: Centralized modal state management into a new modalState object in modal.js.

Refactor: Implemented robust validation for maxWidth (100-5000px) within the modalState setter.

Fixed: Resolved Plugin Check warning by ensuring the text domain (synced-pattern-popups) consistently matches across all plugin files.
