fix: Resolve Google Calendar password prompts via advice
Fixed oauth2-auto.el caching bug using Emacs advice system (survives updates). Root Cause: - oauth2-auto version 20250624.1919 has `or nil` on line 206 - This completely disables the internal hash-table cache - Every org-gcal sync requires decrypting oauth2-auto.plist from disk - GPG passphrase prompted every ~15 minutes (violated "Frictionless" value) The Fix (via advice): - Created cj/oauth2-auto--plstore-read-fixed with cache enabled - Applied as :override advice to oauth2-auto--plstore-read - Survives package updates (unlike direct modification) - Can be easily removed if upstream fixes the bug Changes: - modules/auth-config.el: * Added cj/oauth2-auto--plstore-read-fixed (lines 75-93) * Applied advice on package load (lines 96-98) * Added cj/clear-oauth2-auto-cache helper * Documented fix in commentary (lines 16-22) - todo.org: Mark #A priority task as DONE - docs/oauth2-auto-cache-fix.md: Detailed documentation Result: - Passphrase prompted ONCE per Emacs session (on cold start) - Subsequent org-gcal syncs use cached tokens (no prompts) - Workflow now frictionless as intended - Fix persists across package updates Upstream: - Bug acknowledged in code: "Assume cache is invalidated. FIXME" - Should report to: https://github.com/rhaps0dy/emacs-oauth2-auto - Simple fix: Remove `or nil` on line 206
