🛠️ Fix: Name Sync & History Inconsistencies

Excited to share that the issue related to name synchronization and inconsistent history after a name change has now been successfully fixed! 🎉

This update introduces several changes across multiple files, but I have maintained the overall structure to ensure an easier review process.

🔹 Notable Changes

• Primary key usage: We are now using primary_key as the definitive primary key (yes, it sounds redundant, but it ensures uniqueness and immutability).
• User name mapping: Implemented a mapping of usernames to primary keys to maintain consistency.
• Caching & UI uniformity: Introduced a new table for names and primary keys to streamline caching and ensure uniformity across the UI.
• Helper functions: Added dedicated helper functions for handling new tables and keys across different pages.
• Dependency updates: Upgraded packages in pubspec.yaml to ensure compatibility with the latest devices.

⚡ Important Steps to Run the Updated Code

1. Migration Support:

   • A migration script is included to handle updates from older versions, but it's recommended to uninstall the previous version for a clean transition.

2. Java Compatibility:

   • It is tested on Java 17, though other versions may work fine. Using Java 17 is recommended.

3. Setup Instructions:

   • Run:

     flutter clean
     flutter pub get

   • Then install the latest version via Android Studio.

📽️ Detailed Video Walkthrough

To help with the transition, I have created a 25-minute detailed video covering:

• A live demo of the app
• Code changes across files
• Explanation of updated functions

I have spent 80+ hours understanding, fixing, and testing this issue, so please take the time to watch the video for a complete overview!
