Wire Push Notifications to Key Events

What & Why

Connect the push notification infrastructure (Task #65) and frontend integration (Task #66) to the actual events that matter most to users. When a parent gets a new message, a coach sees a schedule change, or an admin gets a payment alert, they should receive an instant push notification on all their subscribed devices.

Done looks like

• New direct messages trigger a push notification to the recipient ("New message from John Smith")
• Event reminders send a push the day before ("Reminder: Beach Camp is tomorrow at 6 PM")
• Schedule changes and event cancellations push to all registered participants
• Payment reminders push to the person who owes payment
• Marketplace interest notifications push to the listing owner
• Role approval/rejection pushes to the affected person
• Evaluation summaries push to athletes/parents when a report is ready
• All push notifications respect per-category user preferences
• Multi-device delivery works (user with phone + desktop gets both)
• No duplicate pushes for bulk operations
• Admin can see push delivery stats (success/failure counts)

Out of scope

• Backend infrastructure (Task #65)
• Frontend subscription UI (Task #66)
• SMS notifications
• Native mobile app push (this is Web Push only)
