Feature request: timeline / Gantt roadmap view (data is already there) #1012

Feature request: timeline / Gantt roadmap view

PAD already stores everything a roadmap needs: per item next_action_date (and due dates), status, and owner/assignee. But there is no timeline view, so the only way to see "what lands when, and who owns it" today is to render it by hand.

Ask: a built in Gantt / timeline view that plots items (epics first, then dated items) across a week/month grid, grouped by owner. It could be a web view and/or a CLI subcommand.

Example shape (ASCII, rendered from real item dates):

ROADMAP  ·  today = week 1        legend:  # build   . plan   * deadline

                        WEEK    1     2     3     4     5     6     7     8
Team A   Service API     ##
         Migration         ###########                        w2 -> w5
         Feature X                  ################          w4 -> w8
Team B   Redesign                         ..####*             end w6
Owner    Docs revamp     ####

Why it is high value: the data is already in PAD. A timeline view turns dated items into an at a glance roadmap with zero extra data entry, and it reads as who does what when rather than a flat list.

Nice to have: a pad gantt (or pad timeline) CLI subcommand that renders this, filterable by owner / project / collection.
