Bump to 1.0.20: raise minAppVersion to 1.13.0, drop pre-1.13 fallbacks

1.0.19's deprecation fixes used SettingTab.update() and setDestructive(),
both @since 1.13.0 — the review's no-unsupported-api check rightly flags
calling them while minAppVersion declared 1.7.2, runtime guards
notwithstanding. The review effectively requires the 1.13 settings APIs
(it reports display()/setWarning() as deprecated), so the only consistent
state is a 1.13.0 floor.

With 1.13.0 guaranteed:
- settings.ts loses the entire imperative display()/renderImperative()
  fallback (~45 lines) — the tab renders declaratively only
- refresh() calls update() unconditionally
- setDestructive() is called directly, no typeof guard
- README compatibility table updated; versions.json maps 1.0.20 -> 1.13.0

No existing installed base is affected: the plugin is not yet listed in
the community directory.
