BREAKING: Reservations have been completely rebuilt. Existing place-level
reservations are no longer used. All reservations must be re-created via
the Bookings tab. Your trips, places, and other data are unaffected.
Reservation System (rebuilt from scratch):
- Reservations now link to specific day assignments instead of places
- Same place on different days can have independent reservations
- New assignment picker in booking modal (grouped by day, searchable)
- Removed day/place dropdowns from booking form
- Reservation badges in day plan sidebar with type-specific icons
- Reservation details in place inspector (only for selected assignment)
- Reservation summary in day detail panel
Day Detail Panel (new):
- Opens on day click in the sidebar
- Detailed weather: hourly forecast, precipitation, wind, sunrise/sunset
- Historical climate averages for dates beyond 16 days
- Accommodation management with check-in/check-out, confirmation number
- Hotel assignment across multiple days with day range picker
- Reservation overview for the day
Places:
- Places can now be assigned to the same day multiple times

- File attachments during place editing (not just creation)
- Cover image upload during trip creation (not just editing)
- Paste support (Ctrl+V) for images in trip, place, and file forms
