Description
in XML, every single string field having a hardcode string value, that also has a matching key in the translation files (.ts) will have their values replaced at compile tile. This is a problem for the id field because it could break your app. So, we should add a warning anytime an id field has the same value as a key from a translation file.

Research direction
Start by tracing the XML compilation path that replaces hardcoded string values using keys from translation files (.ts). Check how the id field is handled and where compiler warnings are emitted. Done means an id matching a translation key produces a warning without changing other string-field behavior.
