Add project Schedule page with interactive Gantt chart

Adds a Schedule tab (Kitsu-style production schedule) under each
project: tasks grouped by type with drag-to-reschedule bars, Day/Week/
Month zoom, manual date-range control, weekend shading, a frozen task
column, and a two-tier month/date axis header. Requires a new
start_date field on Task (start_date was previously missing; only
deadline existed) and shadcn DatePicker inputs replace native date
inputs on the Schedule toolbar and TaskDetailPanel's Start Date/
Deadline fields.

+One-off script to generate example start_date/deadline data on shot tasks,
+for testing/demoing the Project Schedule (Gantt) page.
+
+Reuses the same shot-sampling approach as generate_note_example_data.py: the
+dev database is heavily populated with disposable load-test fixtures, so this
+picks a small, bounded sample of shots (from Dragon Quest) that have the
+normal 4-task set, rather than scheduling all ~1400 shot tasks.
+
+For each sampled shot, tasks are scheduled in pipeline order (layout ->
+animation -> simulation -> lighting -> compositing, any other task types
+appended after) with realistic overlapping durations, staggered around
+today's date so the chart's "Today" marker falls inside the visible range.
+
+Idempotent: skips any task that already has a start_date set, so it's safe
+to re-run without clobbering manually-edited dates.
