Subject: [PATCH] feat(reminders): configurable all-day reminder fire time

All-day events live at UTC midnight, so a raw "1 day before" reminder
fires at an off hour (02:00 local in CEST) rather than the morning. Add a
global "all-day reminder time" setting (default 09:00) and encode it into
the provider MINUTES offset so the reminder lands at the chosen wall-clock
time the day before instead.

- AllDayReminderEncoding: pure to/from provider-minutes helpers, keeping
  the form/UI/diff in whole-day "semantic" minutes and converting only at
  the Reminders read/write boundary (insertEvent, reconcileReminders,
  EventDetailMapper). Covers DST, negative offsets, and pre-existing rows.
- SettingsPrefs.allDayReminderTimeMinutes (default 540) threaded from the
  repository into the data-source write paths.
- Settings: a time-picker row, plus a shared TimePickerAlert lifted from
  the event editor.
- Fix the time picker's 12/24-hour detection: honour an explicit system
  override, else fall back to the device locale rather than the app's
  per-app language, so it matches the rest of the device.

-## Reminders, round two
+## Reminders — defaults & delivery reliability *(implemented 2026-06-17, `feat/default-reminders` — pending on-device review)*
+
+Two themes bundled because both are "make reminders trustworthy" — the core of
+the "Calendula is your only calendar app" promise.
+
+**Built in this slice (A + the safe half of B):** global timed default reminder
++ a **separate all-day default** (day-scale lead times) + per-calendar override
+(timed events), applied on create with manual-edit / calendar-switch / all-day-
+toggle handling; three pickers + per-calendar override list in Settings →
+Notifications; battery-optimisation exemption row (status + system deep-link, no
+extra permission). `resolveDefaultReminder` + prefs round-trips unit-tested.
+Resolution model: all-day events use the all-day global default outright;
+per-calendar overrides govern timed events only. Reviewed (8-angle), fixes
+applied: form-reset state race, label-fn consolidation with the detail screen,
+inline wrapper + single combined flow read.
+
+**Deliberately deferred (documented decisions, not oversights):**
+- *Absolute time-of-day for all-day reminders* — the all-day default is still
+  minutes-before-midnight (day-scale presets), not "9am the day before" (open
+  decision #2's richer half). Per-calendar all-day overrides also deferred.
+- *Self-scheduled alarms* — kept the existing provider-broadcast architecture
+  (open decision #1). The battery exemption is the reliability lever; no
+  `AlarmManager`/`USE_EXACT_ALARM` subsystem was added.
+- *Test-reminder diagnostic* and *battery prompt inside onboarding* — the
+  exemption lives only in Settings for now (onboarding flow untouched to keep
+  the change reviewable).
+
+### A. Default reminders (global + per-calendar override)
+
+**No provider backing.** `CalendarContract` has no column that auto-applies a
+default reminder per calendar — Google's per-calendar defaults live server-side.
+So both the global default *and* the per-calendar override are **app-side
+preferences**, applied by us at event-insert time. We inherit nothing from the
+synced calendar.
+
+- **Storage (DataStore):**
+  - `defaultReminderMinutes: Int?` — global default; `null` = "no reminder".
+  - `defaultAllDayReminderMinutes: Int?` — separate all-day default (all-day
+    reminders are expressed as minutes before midnight / day-before-at-time, not
+    minutes before a start instant — they need their own value).
+  - `perCalendarReminderOverride: Map<Long, Int?>` — keyed by calendar id;
+    **absent key = inherit global**, explicit `null` = "no reminder for this
+    calendar". (Same for an all-day override map if we want per-calendar all-day.)
+- **Apply on create:** a fresh event prefills its reminders list from
+  override-or-global for the preselected calendar. Changing the calendar in the
+  form re-applies the *new* calendar's default **only if the user hasn't manually
+  edited the reminders** — track a dirty flag, mirroring the per-event-color
+  reset pattern (v2.4).
+- **Edit semantics:** defaults apply to **new events only**; never rewrite
+  reminders on existing events on open or on calendar-switch-during-edit.
+- **Settings UI (Notifications sub-page):**
+  - Global default via OptionCard (None / at time of event / 5 / 10 / 15 / 30 min
+    / 1 h / 1 day / custom), plus the separate all-day default.
+  - Per-calendar overrides: a row per writable calendar (in the Calendars screen
+    or a Notifications subsection), each opening the same OptionCard with a
+    leading **"Use global default"** option.
+
+### B. Delivery reliability (exact alarms + battery)
+
+The provider broadcasts `EVENT_REMINDER`, but on modern Android (Doze / OEM
+battery managers) delivery can be silently delayed or dropped. v1.4 deferred this;
+it directly undermines the feature's premise, so it rides in here.
+
+- **Exact alarm — decision first:** trust the provider broadcast, or
+  self-schedule via `AlarmManager.setExactAndAllowWhileIdle` for reliability?
+  If we self-schedule, declare `USE_EXACT_ALARM` (API 33+, auto-granted for
+  calendar/alarm-category apps, F-Droid-clean) with a `SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM`
+  fallback for API 31–32 (user-revocable → settings deep-link prompt).
+- **Battery-optimization exemption:** a *soft, optional* prompt via
+  `ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS` (settings deep-link — never the
+  auto-grant intent), honest copy: "Android may delay reminders to save battery;
+  exempt Calendula for on-time delivery." Shown once after the existing
+  `POST_NOTIFICATIONS` onboarding step, reversible in Settings → Notifications.
+- **Diagnostics:** a "send a test reminder in 1 minute" button in Notifications
+  settings so users can verify delivery on their specific OEM (Samsung / Xiaomi
+  are notorious for suppressing it).
+
+### Open decisions (resolve before building)
+
+1. Self-schedule via `AlarmManager` vs trust the provider broadcast
+   (reliability vs simplicity + battery cost).
+2. All-day reminder representation (minutes-before vs absolute time-of-day).
+3. Where per-calendar overrides live in the UI (rows on the Calendars screen vs
+   a list inside the Notifications sub-page).
+
+### Later (round two)
 
 - Snooze + dismiss actions on the notification (snooze needs an
-  exact-alarm / WorkManager decision)
-- Settings default reminder applied to new events
+  exact-alarm / WorkManager decision) — Tier 4 #13.
