Completing a single instance of a recurring task marks all future instances as completed #3227

Description

@dbmtrde

Steps to reproduce

  1. Go to the Nextcloud Tasks app in the Web UI.
  2. Create a new task (e.g., "Test Task").
  3. Set a start date or due date for today.
  4. Set a recurrence rule (e.g., "Daily" or "Weekly").
  5. Check the task to mark it as completed for today.
  6. Check the Calendar app or future dates in the Tasks app.

Expected behavior

Only the current instance of the task should be marked as completed. The system should either generate a RECURRENCE-ID exception for the completed instance or roll the DUE date of the master object forward to the next interval, keeping the task series active and open for future dates.

Actual behaviour

When marking the current instance of a recurring task as "completed" via the Nextcloud Web UI, the system changes the status of the master VTODO object to completed. This incorrectly marks all future occurrences of the task as 100% completed as well, making the recurrence feature effectively unusable in the web interface.
