 == Patch Testing Report
 Patch Tested: https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/11412

 === Environment
 - WordPress: 7.0-beta6-62085-src
 - PHP: 8.3.30
 - Server: nginx/1.29.7
 - Database: MySQL 8.4.8
 - Browser: Brave
 - OS: Ubuntu 24.04
 - Theme: Twenty Twenty-Five 1.4
 - MU Plugins: None
 - Plugins: None

 === Steps Taken
 1. Applied PR #11412.
 2. Opened Posts > Add New and clicked the publish date field
    to open the datepicker.
 3. Clicked Next and Previous buttons to navigate between months.
    Both buttons worked correctly.

 ✅ Patch is solving the problem

 === Expected Result
 The datepicker Next and Previous buttons should function correctly
 after the i18n context strings are added.

 === Additional Notes
 1. This is a pure i18n change. No visual difference is expected.
    The strings `Next` and `Previous` now use `_x()` with translator
    context instead of `__()`, helping translators in languages where
    context determines the correct word.
 2. Datepicker navigation confirmed working on WordPress 7.0-beta6.
