fix(tasks): resolve type errors

- Replaced outdated Apps Script methods with modern property access.
- Added JSDoc annotations to resolve type errors.
- Introduced local typedefs for complex objects.
- Added checks for undefined properties to improve robustness.
- Removed unhelpful try-catch blocks.
- Corrected logic in `setCompleted` to use `null` for clearing completion date.
