The crawl endpoint is no longer used by any known clients or crawlers (per investigation in shift-org#620), so remove it along with its view, test, and documentation. - Delete app/endpoints/crawl.js, app/views/crawl.html, app/test/crawl_test.js - Unregister the endpoint and drop the crawl config block - Remove the "Crawling an event" section and note from CALENDAR_API.md - Bump API version to 3.61.0 and add a changelog entry

Closes #733.
Following the investigation in #620, the
crawlendpoint is no longer used by any known clients or crawlers, so this removes it along with its view, test, and documentation.Changes
app/endpoints/crawl.js,app/views/crawl.html, andapp/test/crawl_test.js.app/appEndpoints.jsand removed the now-unusedcrawlconfig block (plus stale comments) inapp/config.js.docs/CALENDAR_API.md. The historical3.4.0changelog line that mentions Crawl is left intact as a record.3.61.0with a changelog entry.A note on versioning
Removing a documented public endpoint is technically a breaking change, which under strict semver would warrant a major bump (
4.0.0). I went with a minor bump (3.61.0) to stay consistent with the existing changelog cadence and to avoid churning the manyApi-Versiontest assertions that are pinned to/^3\./. Happy to switch this to4.0.0(and update those assertions to be major-version-agnostic) if maintainers prefer the stricter interpretation.
