Feature Request: Recurring / repeating tasks #546

Description

@eskopp

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Right now there's no way to have a task automatically come back after it's completed. For chores or routines that repeat on a fixed schedule (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.), the only option is to manually recreate the task every time, which is tedious and easy to forget.

Describe the solution you'd like
An option on a task (or card) to mark it as recurring, with a way to configure the interval (e.g. daily / weekly / monthly / custom, similar to how many calendar or todo apps handle RRULE-style recurrence). When the task is completed, a new instance would automatically be created for the next occurrence, ideally keeping the same board/list placement, checklist, and assignees.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Manually duplicating the card each time it's needed — works, but doesn't scale and is easy to forget, especially for daily/weekly routines.

Additional context
Is there already a recommended way to handle this kind of recurring workflow in kan.bn, or is this genuinely not supported yet?
