feat(task-management): enhance task list with drag-and-drop functionality and improved styling

- Integrated drag-and-drop capabilities using @dnd-kit for task reordering within the TaskListV2 component.
- Updated TaskGroupHeader to dynamically adjust colors based on group properties, improving visual clarity.
- Refactored TaskRow to support drag-and-drop interactions and optimized rendering of task details.
- Enhanced Redux state management for collapsed groups, transitioning from Set to array for better compatibility.
- Improved task display logic to handle optional fields and ensure consistent rendering across components.
