Fix early-bird price blending and mislabeling; add contact-only events

- Early-bird pricing: RegistrationOption now tracks each purchase as a
  separate price tranche instead of overwriting a single price/quantity
  on repeat purchases, so buying more tickets after a tier expires no
  longer re-prices tickets already bought at the old price. Stock-limit
  checks, total-due calculation, and the Finance report's revenue-by-
  option are all tranche-aware; pages that showed one blended price per
  line now render/total each tranche. Viewing a pending/partially-paid
  registration (dashboard, detail page, or an event's registration
  list) now refreshes stale pricing on the spot instead of only at
  payment time.
- Fixed the "(early bird)" dashboard label incorrectly firing on any
  line priced below the base option price (e.g. a plain cheaper
  variant) — it now checks the real applied-tier flag.
- Added contact-only events (e.g. baptism): no registration/payment
  flow, shown on the public site with a "Contact us" popup instead of
  a Register button. Configurable via the admin event wizard.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Added
+
+- Events can now be marked "contact-only" (e.g. baptism) — they appear on the public events list/detail pages with a "Contact us" button (opening a popup with name/phone/email) instead of a Register button, and have no ticket options or registration flow. Configurable from a new toggle in the admin event wizard's Basic Details step.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The user dashboard's "(early bird)" label was a price-comparison heuristic — it fired on any line priced below the option's base price, including plain cheaper variants that were never actually early-bird tickets. It now checks the real applied-tier flag the backend already tracks.
+- Buying more of an already-purchased ticket type after its early-bird tier expired re-priced the *entire* line at the new price instead of adding the new quantity at the new price (e.g. 5 tickets @ R50 + 1 more after the price rose to R100 came out to R600 instead of R350). Each purchase now gets its own price "tranche" recorded against the registration line, so previously-bought tickets keep their original price and only the newly added quantity uses the current price. Registration/reporting pages that showed a single blended price per line now render (or total) each tranche separately.
+- An unpaid (or partially paid) registration's price only ever got refreshed when a payment was actually attempted — an early-bird tier that expired while tickets sat unpaid kept showing its old, no-longer-honoured price (and its "(early bird)" tag) indefinitely on the dashboard until the user tried to pay. Viewing a registration (dashboard, registration detail, or an event's registration list) now refreshes still-outstanding pricing on the spot, same as payment already did.
