Add floating window overlay implementation (seriously WIP)

DEVELOPMENT BRANCH - NOT READY FOR PRODUCTION

Floating window overlay functionality:
- Basic GPS data synchronization implemented but unreliable
- Theme/unit sync between main app and overlay works partially
- Proportional sizing and positioning needs major refinement
- Close button works but overlay behavior inconsistent
- Android SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permissions configured

Known issues:
- Overlay reliability inconsistent across devices/Android versions
- GPS sync unreliable, performance impact possible
- Positioning and sizing calculations need major work

This is a work-in-progress development branch. Main functionality
works but is seriously buggy and not ready for release.

### Technical Stack
```
Dependencies: geolocator, permission_handler, provider, shared_preferences, flutter_material_color_picker
Dependencies: geolocator, permission_handler, provider, shared_preferences, flutter_material_color_picker, flutter_overlay_window
Platforms: Android (primary), iOS support included but untested
Architecture: Provider + Consumer pattern for reactive state management
Permissions: Location services with graceful degradation
Permissions: Location services + SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW for overlay functionality
```
## Recent Updates (v2.1.0)
### ✅ Completed Features
- [x] **Floating Window Overlay**: System-level overlay window for persistent speed display
- [x] **Split Decimal Display**: Main speed prominent, decimal fraction smaller and faded
- [x] **Optimized Content Sizing**: Maximized readability with improved flex ratios
- [x] **Navigation Icon Trigger**: Tap compass area to launch floating window
- [x] **Multiple Close Options**: Overlay close button and long-press navigation area
- [x] **Android Permissions**: SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW and foreground service support
- [x] **Floating Window Overlay**: System-level overlay window for persistent speed display over other apps
- [x] **Split Decimal Display**: Main speed prominent with smaller, faded decimal fraction for better readability
- [x] **Optimized Content Sizing**: Maximized readability with improved responsive layout and flex ratios
- [x] **Navigation Icon Trigger**: Tap compass/navigation area to launch floating window overlay
- [x] **Multiple Close Options**: Overlay close button and long-press navigation area for easy dismissal
- [x] **Theme Synchronization**: Dark/Light theme and speed unit settings sync between main app and overlay
- [x] **Android System Integration**: SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permissions and foreground service configuration
### Previous Updates (v1.1)
- [x] **Portrait/Landscape Support**: Automatic orientation detection implemented

## TODO - Future Improvements
### Known Issues (v2.1.0)
- [ ] **Floating Window Sizing**: Content sizing calculations need refinement for better overlay display
- [ ] **Overlay Positioning**: Improve stability and positioning consistency across different devices
- [ ] **Content Synchronization**: Enhance real-time sync between main app and overlay window
### Critical Issues
- [ ] **Dependency Updates**: Update 10 packages to latest compatible versions
- [ ] **Dependency Updates**: Update packages to latest compatible versions
- [ ] **Orientation Override**: Fix auto-rotate to work regardless of system toggle status
