UI: a better priority picker mockup

[linuxcaffe]

Describe your improvement idea or feature request

Here's an idea for a cleaner, clearer, quicker priority-picker dialog. It's better because
a) one tap to change priority
b) the dialog shows the available options, the order in which that will have an effect*, and the color cues used to represent them.

note: clever taskwarrior users have, in the past, pointed out that of a user actually assigns a "L" priority, that should be almost always be considered lower than NO priority assigned, so the order indicated in the mockup should be the order applied to the urgency coefficient.

On that note, imho, no priority assigned ( X ) should be the default, unless otherwise selected by user.

How would you like to see it implemented?

use something like this mockup in new task and edit task dialogs

Can you assign me this issue??

@arjav1528 just curious, how's that coming along?

[linuxcaffe]

this priority picker, or something like that, appears in 3 places, with variations in behavior;
1 & 2) seen in the Add Task dialog and the Edit Task dialog, to assign priority to a specific task (see: #384 & #385).
3) seen in the Filter dialog, where multiple priorities may be selected (see: #421)

@Pavel401 I've opened a PR for this problem; please review it whenever it's convenient for you and merge it into the main branch.

That looks great!.. but how about reversing the order, or better yet, L-X-M-H like the layout in #410?

and does your code set the default option? If so, IMHO, that should default to X.

Thanks!

@linuxcaffe I have reversed the order as mentioned in the mockup, but recorded the screen before pushing the last commit ;))

[arjav1528]

you can check as well in the PR and about the defauly option, yep, I have set it to the X
