Subject: [PATCH] Fix: Handle missing config file gracefully

The app previously crashed with a FileNotFoundError when
~/.config/task-cli/config.yaml did not exist.

Changes:
- load_config() now creates a default config file if missing
- Added DEFAULT_CONFIG constant with sensible defaults
- Integrated load_config() call into main()
- Added 3 test cases for the fix

Fixes #2
