Move the "Add Feature" (+) and "Expand Project" (sparkles) buttons from
the top navigation bar to the Pending column header in the Kanban board.
Changes:
- KanbanColumn: Add optional onAddFeature, onExpandProject, and
showExpandButton props; render action buttons in column header
- KanbanBoard: Accept and pass action handlers to the Pending column
- App: Remove buttons from header, pass handlers to KanbanBoard
This improves UX by placing feature creation actions contextually near
the pending features they affect. Keyboard shortcuts (N, E) still work.
