feat: support MariaDB 10 and 11; default local to 11 LTS, matrix CI

- docker-compose.yml: pin local default to upstream `mariadb:11.4` (LTS
  until 2029-05); override via `MARIADB_IMAGE`. Drops the unused
  `ENCRYPT=1` toggle that only existed on the itkdev/mariadb wrapper.
- .env / .env.test: parametrize Doctrine `serverVersion` via
  `MARIADB_VERSION` (default `11.4.4-MariaDB`). Also fixes the prior
  inconsistency where .env claimed `10.11.5-MariaDB` and .env.test
  claimed the EOL `mariadb-10.5.13`.
- phpunit.yaml + doctrine.yaml: matrix-test on `mariadb:10.11` (LTS until
  2028-02) and `mariadb:11.4`. `fail-fast: false` so a regression on one
  major doesn't mask the other. Both jobs are renamed to
  `... (matrix.mariadb.image)` for clarity in the Checks tab.
- README: document `MARIADB_IMAGE` / `MARIADB_VERSION` overrides.

 - Fixed Calendar and Colibo feed configuration urls and added [] result when no locationEndpoint is set.
 - Fixed baked-in `.env` shipping `APP_ENV=dev` in the API image; rewritten to `prod` at build time so
   direct reads don't try to bootstrap a dev environment the prod-only dependencies can't satisfy.
+- Switched local dev MariaDB to upstream `mariadb:11.4` LTS (was `itkdev/mariadb:latest`); both 10.11
+  and 11.4 LTS are now exercised by a CI matrix in the PHPUnit and Doctrine schema-validate workflows.
+  `MARIADB_IMAGE` and `MARIADB_VERSION` env vars override the compose image and Doctrine

+### Database (MariaDB)

+Local dev defaults to `mariadb:11.4` (LTS until May 2029). CI also exercises `mariadb:10.11` (LTS until
+Feb 2028) via a matrix in `phpunit.yaml` and `doctrine.yaml`. Two env vars control the version:
+
+- `MARIADB_IMAGE` — the docker image used by the `mariadb` compose service.
+- `MARIADB_VERSION` — the Doctrine `serverVersion` interpolated into `DATABASE_URL` in `.env` /
+  `.env.test`. Must match the running server, or Doctrine will emit dialect-incompatible SQL.
+
+To run the local stack against 10.11:

+```shell
