            Move 'gnome-calendar' from Requires to Recommends on main package

'gnome-calendar' was a hard Requires on the 'calendar-server'
subpackage, but it is not used by the calendar server at all —
'cinnamon-calendar-server.py' only imports ECal, EDataServer,
and ICal from GI:
https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/blob/6.7.4-unstable/calendar-server/cinnamon-calendar-server.py#L14-L22

'gnome-calendar' IS used by the main cinnamon package in the
calendar applet's 'eventView.js', but with graceful degradation:

- Line 668: button only made reactive if gnome-calendar is found
  via GLib.find_program_in_path()
- Line 738: launches 'gnome-calendar --date' to open a date view
- Line 812: launches 'gnome-calendar --uuid' to open a specific event
- Line 868: event click handler only enabled if gnome-calendar found

https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/blob/6.7.4-unstable/files/usr/share/cinnamon/applets/calendar%40cinnamon.org/eventView.js#L668
https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/blob/6.7.4-unstable/files/usr/share/cinnamon/applets/calendar%40cinnamon.org/eventView.js#L738
https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/blob/6.7.4-unstable/files/usr/share/cinnamon/applets/calendar%40cinnamon.org/eventView.js#L868

Since all usage is guarded by 'find_program_in_path()' checks,
the dependency is optional — Recommends is the right strength.

Move it from Requires on 'calendar-server' to Recommends on the
main package, next to the existing calendar-server Recommends.

Linux Mint's 'debian/control' has no gnome-calendar dependency:
