fix(i18n): make the language picker actually apply on device

Browse Source 
The in-app language picker silently did nothing: AppCompatDelegate.set
ApplicationLocales only syncs to the system from an AppCompatActivity, but
MainActivity was a plain ComponentActivity (with a platform theme). Switch
MainActivity to AppCompatActivity and base Theme.Calendula on
Theme.AppCompat.DayNight.NoActionBar.

Changing the locale recreates the activity; set android:windowBackground to a
DayNight colour matching the Compose background (light #FBFCFE / dark #101316)
so the recreation no longer flashes a contrasting backdrop.
