Description

As in our talk today mentioned: The API to create a board should be able to not create default lists like "ToDo", "WiP" or "Done".

This is needed to provide this feature also in the Android client which itself has to create those sample lists (in case the user is offline) - currently this would result in duplicate sample lists after the next sync.

Research direction

Start by locating the API entry point for creating a board and the logic that creates the default lists. Add a way for callers to disable those lists, then verify that board creation can skip them so the Android client can create them offline without duplicates after synchronization.
