Adds GET /api/user/preferences/version so the extension can check for changes every five minutes and reuse cached preferences when the version is unchanged.
This builds on the batch preference endpoint added in calendar-backend#590 and the batching and session caching introduced in calendar-extension#136. The version endpoint supplies the freshness signal the companion extension change needs to reuse those complete batch responses when opening an event editor and reload them after preferences change.
The endpoint returns an opaque SHA-256 token covering the signed-in user's event and shared calendar preferences, default lecture/lab colors, notification suppression, and resolver defaults. It detects deletions and bulk edits without relying on timestamps. Other users' changes and display-only settings do not affect the token.
The route uses existing revocable-session authentication and private, no-store responses. It reads preference projections without rendering meeting templates or triggering imports/provider sync. Database work still grows with the user's preference rows. No schema migration is required.
Schedule/catalog changes retain their existing refresh paths.
Validation
Rollout
Merge and deploy this endpoint before the frontend's cached preference reuse becomes active. Until it is available, the frontend keeps existing per-event reads.
