calendar: add EXDATE support for cancelling single occurrences of recurring events

event delete on a recurring event previously deleted the entire .ics file,
killing the whole series. Now requires --date (adds EXDATE) or --all (deletes
series) for recurring events, refusing to act without either flag.

 ### Event Delete Safety
 
 - Deletes only ONE event at a time. If multiple events match, it lists them and exits.
+- **Recurring events require `--date` or `--all`**. Without either flag, the tool refuses to act and shows usage.
+  - `--date YYYY-MM-DD`: Adds an EXDATE to skip that one occurrence. The rest of the series continues.
+  - `--all`: Deletes the entire .ics file (the whole series). Use only when the user explicitly wants to cancel all future occurrences.
 - **NEVER use `rm` on calendar .ics files directly.** Always use `event delete`.
-- After deleting, verify with `event list` or `khal list`.
+- After deleting/cancelling, verify with `event list` or `khal list`.
