35 · Copyright component ignores its props, footer line cannot be edited or translated

Problem/Motivation

components/copyright/copyright.component.yml defines the props text, company_link and suffix ("Editable copyright text for the footer."), but components/copyright/copyright.twig does not use them:

<div class="copyright-component">
  © 2026 <a href="https://opensenselabs.com/" target="_blank">OpenSense Labs</a>. Crafted together with the community.
</div>

Anything entered in Canvas is ignored, so site builders cannot change the footer line, and a translated site always shows "Crafted together with the community." in English.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Drupal CMS in German with the Convene site template.
  2. Open any page: the footer shows "© 2026 OpenSense Labs. Crafted together with the community."
  3. Edit the copyright component in Canvas and change the suffix: nothing changes on the page.

Proposed resolution

Render the props:

<div class="copyright-component">
  {{ text }} <a href="../{{ company_link.uri }}" target="_blank">{{ company_link.title }}</a>. {{ suffix }}
</div>

At the very least wrap the hard-coded sentence in |t.
