Fix task edit crashing after due_date/due_time save (regression from reminders)

The web edit/create/quick-add views and the sync endpoint assigned
due_date/due_time/reminder_at straight from request data as raw strings.
Django tolerates this at save() (types get coerced deep in the SQL
layer), but the in-memory instance keeps the raw strings afterward.
Task.reschedule_reminders(), added for per-task reminders and run from
save() on that same instance, was the first code to actually operate on
those fields before a page reload and crashed with a TypeError - which
the service worker's 5xx-treated-as-offline fallback then masked as a
misleading "you're offline" screen instead of a real error.

Fixed by parsing with Django's parse_date/parse_time/parse_datetime at
the point these values are read from the request/payload in
tasks/views.py and sync/views.py, rather than trusting raw strings.

5 new regression tests exercise the actual views/endpoint with raw
date/time strings and assert proper types land on the model.
