Linus Rath ecbd218c34 fix: sync only the primary account's collections by default #34
The settings chooser and the reminder filter treat only the capability's
primary account as the user's own, while the engine also counted any
account the server marks as personal. On a server that lists a second
such account, its address books and calendars synced although the
chooser showed them off. The engine now uses the same rule as the app.

Linus Rath 96a6b38321 feat: sync the device's contacts and calendars with the server in the background #34
The sync adapters from ed2525e start a headless task for every sync, but
the task only reported "disabled". This adds the engine it runs
(`src/device-sync/engine`, `src/device-sync/jmap`): for one Android
account and authority it downloads the server's changes, uploads what
the device changed, and hands a report back to SyncManager.

- Downloads follow `/changes` from the state kept in the provider's
  SyncState. Rows and the state they reach are written in one batch, so
  a killed run resumes where it stopped. Without a state, after
  `cannotCalculateChanges` or after the user discarded deletions, a full
  reconcile compares ids instead.
- Uploads go in three phases across accounts (creates, updates,
  deletions), so moving an item to another account never destroys it
  before the copy exists. A create carries a uid written to the device
  first, and the server is asked for that uid before creating, so a lost
  response or a killed run never makes a duplicate. Updates are patches
  guarded by `ifInState`; nothing is replaced whole.
- More than 50 deletions that are also more than a fifth of the synced
  items hold every deletion back and report `tooManyDeletions`, so
  Android asks the user; "undo" restores the items from the server.
- An item the server refuses is marked and not sent again until it
  changes or its back-off (1 hour, doubling to a day) ends. Such
  refusals and planner errors stay with their item; the rest of the run
  goes on.
- Runs of one account and authority take a lock, stop at checkpoints
  when cancelled or close to the deadline, and never throw: every
  failure becomes an outcome, and a rejected sign-in posts one "Sign in
  again" notification.
- The JMAP side uses a client of its own per app account, never the
  UI's, since a run can share the JS runtime with the app.

Turning sync off or signing out runs the same upload first
(`teardownAuthority`) and deletes the rows only once nothing is waiting,
or when the user agreed to lose it.

The planners that map items to rows land in the next commits; until
then a run fails before it touches a row.

Checked: 94 engine tests against the fake provider and JMAP server
(sync flows, failures, crashes and retries, teardown), and `npm run
typecheck`, `npm test` and `npm run i18n:check` on this commit.
