preprocess.py β€” Arabic text cleaning, language filtering, and label encoding.
Arabic user reviews are messy: mixed dialects, elongated letters,
inconsistent spelling of hamza/alef, stray diacritics, emojis
sitting next to curse words, and so on. This module normalises
the surface form so the model sees less noise, while keeping the
parts that actually carry sentiment (e.g. emojis, punctuation that
signals emphasis).
NEW in v2: aggressive non-Arabic filtering and per-aspect label encoding
(9 integers instead of 27 floats).
