Allow retro-ratchet when goal date is less than one week away

Currently when you try to retro-ratchet a goal with a goal date within the akrasia horizon, you get the following warning: “Your goal date is less than a week away. Please extend it first using the road dial.

If there’s no technical reason to prevent this, I’d like for this barrier to be removed.

My two use cases are:

  1. Creating short-term goals with a goal date less than one week into the future.

  2. Moving the goal date to today on (again short-term) goals where I have reached my target, i.e. I’m in the YBR and the goal says “days until goal date” instead of “days until derailment”.

Note that this feature request only makes sense since the introduction of configurable retro-ratchet for all.
