Enhance UnifiedPush support for notifications

Description

Please enhance the UnifiedPush support by the ability to notify about what changed in witch calendar. At best on a calendar basis and individual for new / delete /update.
UnifiedPush works like a charm so far. But without knowing what changed in witch calendar it is not very helpful to me yet. I think UnifiedPush shines if you use shared calendars. But without knowing the details how I should find a new entry? Currently we send email to notify about changes. But that's not my understanding of a smart solution. If there is a better place to address this feature request, or a tool I can use that already deal wih my needs let me know.

Hi, push is currently used for instant synchronization, not for update notifications.

The benefit is that instead of polling the server every x amount of minutes, the server can notify us whenever something has been updated, and we can refresh the locally stored data as soon as possible.

Two different "workarounds" in case you are using Nextcloud (no idea if you do, just a wild guess 😅):

1. In your notification settings you can enable Push notifications (or Mail if you prefer for which you can setup the frequency of mails below the notification settings) for calendar changes. This should work independently of davx5 (didn't test it for Calendar but other push notifications are kind of reliably shown on my desktop PC and smartphone):
   

2. Use the activity app. The activity view lists all changes including calendar entry changes.
   On your phone you can add a widget of the NC app and select "Recent Activities" (hope my translation is correct, in German it's "Neueste Aktivitäten").

   Looks like this on my phone (of course it gets a little bit messy when there are many other changes, as one cannot filter the view AFAIK. Related issue: Filter activity via api nextcloud/android#1733):
