Summary of Changes

Hello @fulleni, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

I've implemented a significant refactor to how the dashboard's content summary is synchronized with content management operations. The primary goal is to ensure that the dashboard always reflects the most current data without requiring explicit refresh calls from various content management pages. This is achieved by making the dashboard reactive to changes in headlines, topics, and sources, improving data consistency and simplifying the overall application flow.

Highlights

• Reactive Dashboard Updates: I've refactored the DashboardBloc to proactively listen for changes in headlines, topics, and sources. This means the dashboard will now automatically refresh its summary data whenever content is created, edited, or archived in the content management sections.
• Decoupled Content Management: To support the reactive updates, I've removed all manual calls to refresh the dashboard (e.g., DashboardSummaryLoaded()) from the content management pages. This simplifies the logic in those pages and centralizes dashboard update management.
• Event Renaming and New Internal Event: The DashboardSummaryLoaded event has been renamed to DashboardSummaryRequested to better reflect its purpose. Additionally, an internal _DashboardEntityUpdated event was introduced to facilitate the stream-based updates within the DashboardBloc.

Code Review

This pull request refactors the dashboard state management to be more reactive and decoupled. Instead of manually dispatching events to refresh the dashboard summary from various UI pages, it now subscribes to entityUpdated streams from the data repositories. This is a great improvement for maintainability.

My review includes suggestions to further simplify the new BLoC logic by removing an unnecessary internal event, making the data flow more direct. Overall, this is a solid refactoring.
