release: cut v2.4.0 — per-event colors

Optional per-event color in the event form. The read/render path already
resolved EVENT_COLOR with a calendar fallback; this adds the write side and
the picker.

- Palette-backed calendars (Google, some CalDAV) pick from the account's
  Colors (TYPE_EVENT) and write EVENT_COLOR_KEY, so the color round-trips
  through sync; local calendars write a raw EVENT_COLOR from the shared
  CALENDAR_COLOR_PALETTE. Never writes a raw color to a palette calendar.
- Swatch row + palette extracted to ui/common/ColorSwatchRow.kt (shared with
  the calendar editor). Switching calendars resets the choice (keys are
  account-scoped); a "Reset" action returns to the calendar color.
- New "Allow colors on unsupported calendars" setting (off by default)
  extends the raw path to no-palette synced calendars, with an honest
  "may not survive sync" warning on the picker and in Settings.
- Color flows through insert / dirty-checked update / occurrence-exception;
  mapper, form, and repository tests added.

+
+### Added
+- Per-event colors: give a single event its own color, instead of always
+  inheriting its calendar's. Add the new "Color" field from "More fields" in
+  the event form. On calendars that publish their own color set — such as
+  Google — you pick from that calendar's palette, so the color is stored
+  with the event and shows correctly on every synced device. On local
+  calendars you pick from Calendula's palette. "Reset" returns an event to
+  its calendar's color
+- A new "Allow colors on unsupported calendars" setting (New event form,
+  off by default) extends per-event colors to calendars that publish no
+  color set of their own (some CalDAV). Such a color is kept on the device
+  and may be dropped or overwritten on that calendar's next sync — a
+  limitation of those calendars, called out plainly in the setting and on

+## [2.3.0] — 2026-06-16

+### Changed
+- Redesigned Settings around the Material 3 grouped-list pattern: a large
+  title that collapses into the toolbar as you scroll, category cards on the
+  main screen, and dedicated sub-pages for Appearance, the new-event form, and
+  Notifications. The theme, week-start and language pickers now use the app's
+  standard option-card dialogs instead of dropdown menus
+- About moved to the top of Settings as a card — app icon, author, and quick
+  links to the source code and licence — with the version shown plainly at the
+  foot of the list
+- The Calendars screen now uses the same grouped-card layout and collapsing
+  title, and each calendar shows a soft pastel-tinted calendar glyph rather
+  than a plain colour swatch
+- Redesigned the navigation drawer to match: a branded header, the
+  Month / Week / Day switch and your calendars as grouped cards (with the
+  active view highlighted), and the whole drawer now scrolls as one
