fix(dashboard): handle null responses in widget data fetching

- Added `react-grid-layout` for drag-and-drop functionality.
- Created `DashboardCanvas` component to manage layout and widget interactions.
- Introduced `WidgetContainer` and `WidgetPicker` components for widget management.
- Implemented various widgets: Active Rides, Today Sales, Pending Purchase Orders, Stock Alerts, Recent Orders, and Loading Sheets.
- Integrated API calls for fetching and saving dashboard preferences.
- Defined default layouts for different user roles.
- Created a card component for consistent widget styling.
