This PR enhances the UX and accessibility of the Flight screen:

💡 What:

  • Integrated expo-haptics into the SwipeableFlightCardComponent to provide tactile feedback when swiping past the pin threshold and upon successful pinning/unpinning.
  • Added comprehensive accessibilityLabel and accessibilityActions to flight cards, allowing Screen Reader users to understand flight details at a glance and perform actions via the "Actions" menu.
  • Replaced hardcoded Italian accessibility labels on the notification button with localized strings.
  • Added missing translation keys for accessibility hints and prepositions.

🎯 Why:

  • Gestural interactions like "swipe to pin" are invisible to Screen Reader users. Accessibility actions make these features usable for everyone.
  • Haptics provide "delight" and confirm that an action is ready to trigger, reducing cognitive load.
  • Hardcoded labels prevented English-speaking users from having a fully accessible experience.

♿ Accessibility:

  • Added aria-label (via accessibilityLabel) to flight cards.
  • Added custom accessibility actions for pinning.
  • Fixed localized accessibility labels for the notification toggle.
