Extbase will properly use mm sorting.
But categories can't be sorted within the TCA tree component.
Therefore it makes more sense to use actual sys_category sorting.
In order to do so, we add our own model and pass the sorting.
That way PHP can do the sorting.
That's the easiest approach.
Also events shouldn't contain to many categories. A performance impact
should not be high.

Respect start and end when creating demand from settings.
That way integrator can configure it via TypoScript, or provide an
FlexForm.
Also the query was adjusted. It now respects a single value and doesn't
need start and end.
That way upcoming events can be created.

Given: Website uses copy / free mode of localization.
and Editor selects specific events to display.
Then: Those events should be displayed as selected.
Before this change the sorting was applied on uid of objects,
which is the uid of default lanugage record. But editors might select
localized uids. Therefore a fallback is added in case no object was
found.

That has no effect, the info is just available from model.
This can be used to display a canceled date in a different way, or
render a notice.

Make controller smaller, remove unused code.
Move creation of demand object into its own factory.
Reduce npath complexity in repository and move parts into named methods.
Allow editors to select specific events to display.
Therefore add new necessary demand and setting for events and respect
them within repository.

Add new record type partner.
This can be something like a media partner or something else.
Allow an event to have zero or more partner.
Add necessary files and models with relations.

Allow editor to reference TYPO3 page records from events.
E.g. used to provide further internal information links.
Also those pages are resolved via DataProcessing.
That allows integrators to be 100% flexible to resolve those page info.
By default a menu is generated and media is resolved.
Also validation is ignored, as this improves performance and allows to
use the new class as injected property without validation fails.
Models are not managed via frontend and therefore don't need validation.

Allow configuration of synonyms via TypoScript.
This is taken into account when searching dates via submitted demand.
The configuration looks like the following:
plugin.tx_events {
settings {
synonyms {
10 {
word = Stadtführung
synonyms = Tour, Stadtführungen, Führung
}
}
}
}
The 10, 11, … is necessary as umlauts won't work as keys.
So `synonyms.Stadtführung = Tour, Stadtführungen` will not work.
