feat(sync): selective push, remote deletion detection, and gcal fix

Problem: `push_pass` updated all remote-linked tasks unconditionally,
causing unnecessary API calls and potential clobbering of remote edits
made between syncs. `pull`/`sync` never noticed when a task disappeared
from remote. `update_event` omitted `transparency` that `create_event`
set. Failure counts were absent from sync log summaries.

Solution: Introduce `_gtasks_synced_at` in `_extra` — stamped after
every successful push/pull create or update — so `push_pass` skips
tasks unchanged since last sync. Add `detect_remote_deletions` to
unlink local tasks whose remote entry disappeared from a successfully
fetched list. Surface failures as `!N` in all sync logs and
`unlinked: N` for pull/sync. Add `transparency = 'transparent'` to
`update_event`. Cover new behaviour with 7 tests in `gtasks_spec.lua`.
