Feature Request: Add Native App Shortcuts (Quick Actions) for Add Task & Reports #614

Description

@chan9an

Describe your improvement idea or feature request

To improve user experience and navigation speed, we should add native home screen App Shortcuts (the quick actions menu that appears when a user long-presses the app icon).

Specifically, we need to add two quick actions:

  1. Add Task: Instantly opens the app and triggers the AddTaskSheet bottom sheet.
  2. Reports Page: Opens the app and routes the user directly to the Reports dashboard.

How would you like to see it implemented?

This should be implemented using the official quick_actions Flutter package, integrated cleanly with our GetX architecture.

1. Controller Logic: Create a dedicated GetX controller (e.g., AppShortcutController) initialized in onReady() to handle the shortcut listeners. This prevents race conditions during the app's boot sequence and keeps main.dart clean.

2. Routing Details:

  • Wire the add_task action to Get.bottomSheet(AddTaskSheet()).
  • Wire the reports action to Get.toNamed('/reports').
