Description
### Describe your improvement idea or feature request
Currently, to add tasks from external calendars or event invitations, users must manually type out the details, due dates, and descriptions into Taskwarrior.
This feature request is to add native `.ics` file parsing into the Flutter app. Users will be able to select an `.ics` file from their device storage, parse the included `VEVENT` and `VTODO` items, preview the tasks, and selectively merge them safely into either the Standard local database or the Task Server Replica.
### How would you like to see it implemented?
1. Go to the Home screen and click on the **'+'** FAB to open the Add Task bottom-sheet.
2. Click on a newly added **'Import ICS'** icon button.
3. This triggers a native File Picker allowing the user to select any `.ics` file from their Android/iOS device.
4. A secondary `IcsImportBottomSheet` appears listing all the detected tasks parsed from the file with selectable checkboxes.
5. Click **'Import'** to merge the selected tasks. The code will safely route the parsed tasks to `Replica.addTaskToReplica` if the user is using the Task Server, or use the standard `taskParser` and `mergeTask` otherwise.
