Feature Proposal: Add Quick Settings Tile for faster app access

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sometimes AutoFill doesn't trigger on specific apps or web forms, requiring the user to manually open Keepass2Android. Navigating back to the home screen or searching the app drawer can be slow when in the middle of a login flow.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to add a Quick Settings Tile for Keepass2Android. This would allow users to pull down their notification shade and tap a tile to launch the app (specifically LaunchActivity) immediately from any screen.

Implementation Plan
I plan to fork the repository and implement the following:

  1. New Service: A QuickSettingsTileService.cs (utilizing Android.Service.QuickSettings.TileService).
  2. Manifest Updates: Adding the service declaration and BIND_QUICK_SETTINGS_TILE permission to the flavor-specific manifests (net, nonet, and debug).
  3. UI: A monochrome vector icon for the tile to match Android's design language.

Additional Context
I will be drafting and refining the C# code and manifest changes with the assistance of Gemini Pro AI to ensure the implementation follows modern Android best practices and integrates cleanly with the existing Xamarin/C# codebase.

Are you open to a Pull Request for this feature? Please let me know if you have any specific requirements or preferences regarding the implementation!
