Description

Expected behavior

Notifications should clearly display separation between different days for better readability.

Actual behavior

Notifications from different days appear without clear separators, potentially confusing users about the timeline of events.

Steps to reproduce the behavior
  1. Open 'Notifications'
  2. Navigate to notifications older than a few days.
Tested on [device], Android [version], JPAndroid / WPAndroid [version]

Galaxy S21 5G, Android 12, Jetpack 25.2.1 (1444)/WordPress 25.2.1 (1444)
