📌 Issue Title / Suggestion Summary

Add support for recurring expenses to automatically log repeated payments in groups.

📝 Detailed Description

Current Behavior:
Currently, Splitwiser only allows users to add one-time expenses manually. Users must re-enter recurring payments like rent, subscriptions, or utilities each time.
Proposed Change:
Add a Recurring Expenses feature that lets users schedule repeated payments automatically, with options to edit, delete, and receive notifications.
Why It’s Needed:
Reduces repetitive manual entry for recurring expenses.
Improves user convenience and engagement.
Makes the app more practical for real-world financial management.
