This PR adds a Future Budget Projections feature to ActualBudget, adding functionalities of a forward-looking financial planner. Users can now access a new "Future" tab that displays a full-year view of projected budgets, with options to auto-generate forecasts using a 3-month average or manually input their own projections. The Future tab includes an interactive dashboard with monthly breakdowns, end-of-the-month (or year) balance tracking, and a line chart visualizing income, expenses, and projected balances over time.

It also introduces a template management system for saving and loading custom projection scenarios.

While the main components of this features have been lightly tested on my own budget, not all edge cases are considered (suggestions or feedback welcome!). Also, some parts - like the option to manually add future transactions - are for now just a placeholder, so they can be potentially added.
