chore(release): cut 2.14.1

Move the Unreleased fixes (#47, #48, #49, #22) under a 2.14.1 heading, bump
versionName/versionCode to 2.14.1/21401, and sync the F-Droid per-version
changelog.

+## [Unreleased]

+## [2.14.1] — 2026-07-13
+
+### Fixed
+- Deleting one occurrence of a repeating event no longer breaks the series.
+  Choosing "This event" when deleting an occurrence of a recurring event could
+  wipe out every *other* occurrence while leaving the one you deleted behind as
+  a stale, still-tappable ghost — and deleting it again brought the series back.
+  A single-occurrence delete now removes exactly that occurrence and leaves the
+  rest of the series untouched, and the deleted occurrence disappears from the
+  grid straight away. This holds on every kind of calendar, including the
+  on-device ones Calendula keeps for contact birthdays and anniversaries, where
+  the series is a yearly repeat. Thanks to @moonj for the report ([#47]).
+- Tapping an event in a third-party widget opens it in Calendula. v2.13.1 taught
+  Calendula to answer the "new event" hand-off from other apps and widgets; now
+  it also answers the "open this event" one, so tapping an existing event in a
+  widget such as Todo Agenda offers Calendula and lands on that event's details.
+  Thanks to @bushrang3r for the report ([#48]).
+- Events created from other apps get your default reminder. An event handed over
+  by another app or widget — Google Maps' "add to calendar", the Todo Agenda
+  widget's "+" — opened with no reminder at all, ignoring the default set in
+  Settings. It now starts with your default reminder, the same as an event you
+  create in Calendula. An event opened from an `.ics` file is treated differently,
+  because the file has its own say: Calendula keeps whatever reminders it carries
+  (including none at all) and asks you once whether to apply your default instead
+  — it never quietly overrides the file. If you have no default set, it doesn't
+  ask ([#49]).
+- A tidy colour picker on CalDAV calendars. For calendars synced by a CalDAV
+  app (such as DAVx5), the event colour picker showed every colour the account
+  publishes — nearly 150 swatches in alphabetical order, many of them
+  duplicates or near-identical shades. The picker now shows only visually
+  distinct colours, arranged as a rainbow; near-duplicate shades and the
+  washed-out neutrals are folded away so no two swatches look alike. Picked
+  colours still sync exactly as before, and calendars with hand-picked
+  palettes (like Google's) are unaffected. Thanks to @ptab for the report
+  ([#22]).

+ * Curates an account's published event palette for the colour picker.
+ *
+ * Sync adapters differ wildly in what they publish: Google exposes a
+ * hand-picked two-dozen set, while CalDAV adapters (DAVx5) dump all ~147 CSS3
+ * named colours — including exact-value aliases (aqua/cyan, the gray/grey
+ * spelling pairs) and dozens of visually indistinguishable whites and grays
+ * (#22).
+ *
+ * Crucially, curation runs against the colour the picker actually *paints*, not
+ * the raw provider value. The picker softens every swatch through [pastelArgb]:
+ * it pins lightness to a constant and caps saturation, so the raw palette's
+ * lightness axis is invisible on screen. Two raw colours that look different —
+ * a navy and a mid blue — paint as one swatch, and every neutral (black, the
+ * grays, white) paints as the same pale tint. Judging distinctness in raw
+ * space, as before, left near-identical painted swatches and stranded the
+ * neutrals as a run of look-alike "pinks" at the end of the grid.
+ *
+ * Three steps, all in painted space:
+ *  1. Collapse swatches that paint identically to one (alphabetically-first key
+ *     wins, deterministically) — this folds aliases, dark/light shades of a
+ *     hue, and all the neutrals together.
+ *  2. Oversized palettes (> [CURATION_TRIGGER_SIZE]) drop the washed-out
+ *     neutral-origin tints (painted chroma < [PASTEL_CHROMA_FLOOR]) and are
+ *     then thinned to visually distinct colours: most vivid first, a colour is
+ *     kept only when at least [MIN_DELTA_E] (CIE76, painted Lab) from every
+ *     colour already kept. Small palettes are already curated by their adapter
+ *     and pass through whole.
+ *  3. The survivors are ordered like a rainbow — continuously by painted hue —
+ *     with the wheel cut at its single widest empty gap so the one unavoidable
+ *     seam lands in dead space and no hue family is torn across both ends.
+ *
+ * Every surviving option keeps its provider [EventColorOption.key], so a pick
+ * still round-trips through sync.

+### Fixed
+- Deleting one occurrence of a repeating event no longer breaks the series.
+  Choosing "This event" when deleting an occurrence of a recurring event could
+  wipe out every *other* occurrence while leaving the one you deleted behind as
+  a stale, still-tappable ghost — and deleting it again brought the series back.
+  A single-occurrence delete now removes exactly that occurrence and leaves the
+  rest of the series untouched, and the deleted occurrence disappears from the
+  grid straight away. This holds on every kind of calendar, including the
+  on-device ones Calendula keeps for contact birthdays and anniversaries, where
+  the series is a yearly repeat. Thanks to @moonj for the report ([#47]).
+- Tapping an event in a third-party widget opens it in Calendula. v2.13.1 taught
+  Calendula to answer the "new event" hand-off from other apps and widgets; now
+  it also answers the "open this event" one, so tapping an existing event in a
+  widget such as Todo Agenda offers Calendula and lands on that event's details.
+  Thanks to @bushrang3r for the report ([#48]).
+- Events created from other apps get your default reminder. An event handed over
+  by another app or widget — Google Maps' "add to calendar", the Todo Agenda
+  widget's "+" — opened with no reminder at all, ignoring the default set in
+  Settings. It now starts with your default reminder, the same as an event you
+  create in Calendula. An event opened from an `.ics` file is treated differently,
+  because the file has its own say: Calendula keeps whatever reminders it carries
+  (including none at all) and asks you once whether to apply your default instead
+  — it never quietly overrides the file. If you have no default set, it doesn't
+  ask ([#49]).
+- A tidy colour picker on CalDAV calendars. For calendars synced by a CalDAV
+  app (such as DAVx5), the event colour picker showed every colour the account
+  publishes — nearly 150 swatches in alphabetical order, many of them
+  duplicates or near-identical shades. The picker now shows only visually
+  distinct colours, arranged as a rainbow; near-duplicate shades and the
+  washed-out neutrals are folded away so no two swatches look alike. Picked
+  colours still sync exactly as before, and calendars with hand-picked
+  palettes (like Google's) are unaffected. Thanks to @ptab for the report
+  ([#22]).
