feat(task-repeat): default skip-overdue for new everyday recurring tasks (#8861)
* feat(task-repeat): default skip-overdue for new everyday recurring tasks

New recurring configs now default skipOverdue ("Don't let overdue instances
pile up") to ON only for a plain everyday schedule — the "Daily" preset or a
CUSTOM every-single-day cycle. That is the one case where the option is both
useful and provably safe: everyday tasks are the only schedule that actually
piles up (one empty overdue copy per missed day), and today is always
scheduled so a missed instance regenerates the same day and can never
silently vanish (it cannot even drop to zero).

Every other schedule stays OFF — workday/weekly/monthly/yearly and every-N-day
custom cycles keep their one missed occurrence visible, so a real obligation
(pay rent on the 1st, renew the domain) never disappears until its next
occurrence. Deriving the default purely from the effective schedule means the
"Daily" preset and a CUSTOM every-day cycle (the same schedule entered two
ways) get the same default — no "same schedule, different default" surprise.

The default is seeded from the chosen schedule in both config-creation paths:
the repeat dialog (re-derived from the final schedule on save, and skipped
when the user explicitly toggled the Advanced checkbox) and the inline
add-task-bar recurrence. Existing configs and DEFAULT_TASK_REPEAT_CFG
(skipOverdue: false) are unchanged; only newly created configs are affected.

Supersedes the broader daily+Mon-Fri variant, dropping the schedule-change
checkbox re-sync machinery: an Advanced checkbox opened on a Daily config and
then switched may briefly show a stale ON, but save always persists the safe
re-derived value.

* docs(task-repeat): clarify custom every-day default; signpost baseline

Multi-review follow-ups (no behavior change):
- Wiki 2.06 + 4.13: a CUSTOM every-single-day cycle also defaults skipOverdue
  ON (it is the same schedule as the Daily preset); "off" now reads "custom
  cycles longer than a day" so the docs match getDefaultSkipOverdue.
- Comment on DEFAULT_TASK_REPEAT_CFG.skipOverdue pointing to the schedule-aware
  creation default, so the model's `false` baseline is not mistaken for the
  effective default.
- Tighten the save() display-gap comment: the cosmetic seeded-ON/persist-OFF
  gap applies to any new non-Daily config whose Advanced panel is opened
  untouched, not only a Daily→switch.

* refactor(task-repeat): use type-only import in skip-overdue predicate

TaskRepeatCfgCopy is used only in type position; match the codebase's import type convention (58 other files). No behavior change.
