Karol Baraniecki 94e14bbe65 cal: Get default week start day from Calendar
Making it configurable in system settings :^)
The --start-day option can still overwrite this global default.

This change makes it no longer possible to use unveil: as we have
to load the Calendar config file, which might be in a dynamic location.

It's also neccessary to add `cpath` to the pledge, as opening a
nonexistent config file with Core::ConfigFile::open_for_app creates it.
