Card integration, task branches, and workflow improvements for enterprise use

[euclidesgc]

Hello! How are you?

I'm submitting this PR to contribute some optional features that can help bring the extension closer to the workflow of large companies, especially those that use tools like Jira and have collaborative work processes.

Main points of the updates:

The new features are completely optional and do not change the default flow of the extension.
We implemented card integration for branch naming (feature, bugfix, hotfix, release, support, task) with a customizable template, making it easier to standardize and track with tools like Jira.
We added the concept of tasks, which are branches derived from a feature. This allows large features to be split into smaller tasks, enabling multiple developers to collaborate on the same feature at the same time—a common practice in Brazilian companies.
We included commands and configuration for managing these tasks within the Gitflow workflow.
We added options for offline work and sync checking, making the extension more flexible for different work environments.
We updated the Node.js version used in the project to 16.20.2.
Files created/updated/modified:

• extension.ts
• flow.ts
• card.ts
• config.ts
• fs.ts
• git.ts
• fail.ts
• package.json
• tsconfig.json
• README.md
• CHANGELOG.md

The intention of these updates is to make the extension even more useful for teams that work collaboratively and are integrated with project management tools, without impacting those who prefer the traditional flow.

I'm available to discuss any points or make adjustments as needed. Thank you for your attention!

Hi @euclidesgc

I was testing the feature and the task was created successfully with the following message:

Task branch task/verify created successfully from feature feature/card

However, I’m unable to finish the task due to the following error:

Invalid task branch format. Expected: task/feature-name/task-name

It seems the generated task branch name doesn’t match the expected format. Could you please check and fix this?

Thanks!
