Description
Followup to https://github.com/nextcloud/calendar/pull/3885
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
After merging the mentioned PR, users will be able to edit invitations again. Those changes will never be propagated to the real event but it might confuse users.
Describe the solution you'd like
Show a warning in the editor that changes only affect your local version of the event/invitation. Only your participation status will be propagated.
Describe alternatives you've considered
- Set the event read only: This approach introduces serious edge cases. If an event is inside your calendar you should be able to edit as pleased. Refer to https://github.com/nextcloud/calendar/issues/3866 for more information.

Research direction
Review pull request 3885 and the invitation editor to understand the editing flow and participation-status handling. Add a visible warning that edits affect only the local event, while participation status is propagated; done means the warning appears when editing invitations and accurately communicates this limitation.
