Allow showing repeating tasks in the future like events and notes

I decided to hide future tasks given that the repeater schedule for tasks can change. (e.g. when selecting complete today for overdue tasks), which would make future predictions be unreliable. There are scenarios where future tasks can be shown, so this ticket is just to track interest in that.

    **Improve Repeating Tasks for Planning Ahead**

    Love this app! One feature I'd really like to see improved is how repeating tasks work.

    Currently, a repeating task only appears after the previous occurrence has been completed. For example, if I set "Cook dinner" to repeat every Monday through Saturday, it only appears on Monday. It won't show on Tuesday until I've completed Monday's task.

    This makes it difficult to use the app as a planner. If I jump ahead to Saturday, I can't immediately see that "Cook dinner" is scheduled for that day, so I don't get an accurate picture of the upcoming week.

    It would be great to have an option for repeating tasks to be generated on all scheduled dates in advance, so future days already display their recurring tasks whether or not previous occurrences have been completed. This would make planning ahead much easier while still allowing users who prefer the current behavior to keep using it.

    Xeric Othilie: You can tap on the repeater icon, and then edit the template to update all items.

    Secondary Gerry: Was it a repeating task with a specific end date? Those had a bug which is now fixed

    When you edit a repeating task after creating it, the edits don’t perpetuate to the following repeats. So if I go back and change the priority because I forgot to set it correctly it won’t update the repeating task. I have to delete and readd

    Would also be good for repeating tasks to maintain an order.
