docs: Correct feature planning to focus on plugin architecture, not UI

- Remove UI framework considerations (Tailwind, etc.) as irrelevant for Capacitor plugins
- Focus on plugin API design, data models, and platform integration
- Update implementation phases to reflect actual plugin development needs
- Correct conclusion to emphasize plugin architecture over UI components
- Clarify that plugins provide backend functionality, not visual presentation

Resolves: Misunderstanding of Capacitor plugin architecture and UI responsibilities

User Journey: Setting Up Dual Scheduling
1. User opens notification settings
2. User sees dual scheduling options
3. User configures content fetch schedule
4. User configures user notification schedule
5. User sets callback preferences
6. User configures UI preferences
7. User saves configuration
8. System validates and applies settings
```typescript
interface DailyNotificationPlugin {
// Existing methods
scheduleDailyNotification(options: NotificationOptions): Promise<void>;
getLastNotification(): Promise<NotificationResponse | null>;
cancelAllNotifications(): Promise<void>;
getNotificationStatus(): Promise<NotificationStatus>;
// New dual scheduling methods
scheduleContentFetch(config: ContentFetchConfig): Promise<void>;
scheduleUserNotification(config: UserNotificationConfig): Promise<void>;
getDualScheduleStatus(): Promise<DualScheduleStatus>;
updateDualScheduleConfig(config: DualScheduleConfiguration): Promise<void>;
}
