refactor(task-list): streamline task addition and socket handling

- Removed local socket listener from AddTaskRow, delegating task addition to the global socket handler for real-time updates.
- Simplified the handleTaskAdded function in TaskListV2, eliminating the need for refetching tasks upon addition.
- Updated useTaskSocketHandlers to handle task data more efficiently, ensuring proper integration with the Redux store.
