1. Feature: Community Event Creation & Pinning

User Story: As a Community Moderator, I want to create a scheduled event so that I can organize activities, automatically generate an announcement post, and keep it visible at the top of the community.

Acceptance Criteria:

• Event Details: When creating an event, the Moderator must provide a title, description, start time, and end time.
• Automatic Post Generation: Upon creation, the system must create a new record in the Post table linked to the event. This post should include the event details in the body.
• Automatic Pinning: The generated Post must have isPinned: true by default to ensure it stays at the top of the community feed.
• Moderator Permissions: Only users present in the CommunityModerator table with canManagePosts: true should be allowed to create events.
• Validation: The startTime must be in the future, and endTime must be after startTime.

3. Feature: Event Notifications

User Story: As a Community Member, I want to be notified when a new event is created and receive a reminder before it starts so that I don't miss out.

Acceptance Criteria:

• Creation Notification: When an event is published, a Notification entry of a new type COMMUNITY_EVENT should be created for all users in the CommunityMember table for that community.
• Reminder Notification: The system should trigger a notification to all "Interested" users 30 minutes (configurable) before the startTime.
• Linked Content: The notification must link directly to the postId associated with the event.
