feat: add calendar event stacking configuration options (#1257, #1064)

Add user-configurable options for controlling how events display and stack in the calendar view: - slotEventOverlap: toggle visual overlap of timed events - eventMaxStack: limit stacked events in week/day view - dayMaxEvents: limit events per day in month view - dayMaxEventRows: limit event rows per day in month view Also includes dark mode styling fixes for the timeGrid more-link element and translations for all supported locales.

 You can control which types of events are shown by default in the calendar views, including scheduled tasks, tasks with due dates, recurring tasks, time entries, and events from external calendars.

+## Event Display and Stacking
+
+These settings control how events are displayed when multiple events occur at the same time or on the same day.
+
+**Allow events to overlap** - When enabled, timed events in week and day views can visually overlap each other. When disabled, events are displayed side-by-side with no overlapping.
+
+**Max stacked events (week/day view)** - Limits how many events can stack horizontally in the week and day views. When exceeded, a "+X more" link appears. Set to 0 for unlimited stacking.
+
+**Max events per day (month view)** - Limits how many events are shown per day cell in month view. When exceeded, a "+X more" link appears. Set to 0 for automatic limiting based on cell height.
+
+**Max event rows per day (month view)** - Limits how many rows of events are shown per day cell in month view. Set to 0 for unlimited rows.
+
 ## Timeblocking Features

 You can enable or disable the **Timeblocking** feature in the Features tab, which allows you to create and manage timeblocks in the calendar views. When enabled, dragging on a time slot in the calendar view will display a context menu that includes the "Create timeblock" option.
