Removes need for Horologist

[garanj]

Wear Compose now has the ResponsiveTransformingLazyColumn component, and as part of this, there is no longer the need to use the Horologist library to ensure responsive padding in the list.

This PR removes the Horologist dependency.

Summary of Changes

Hello @garanj, 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!

This pull request streamlines the project's dependency management by removing the Horologist library. This removal is facilitated by the adoption of the new ResponsiveTransformingLazyColumn component, now natively available in Wear Compose, which provides equivalent functionality for responsive list padding. The change also includes various dependency version updates and integration of new lifecycle and preview support for Compose.

Highlights

• Horologist Dependency Removal: The Horologist library, specifically horologist-compose-layout, has been entirely removed from the project's dependencies, simplifying the project's dependency graph.
• Migration to Native Wear Compose Components: The project now leverages the newly available ResponsiveTransformingLazyColumn component from Wear Compose, eliminating the need for the external Horologist library for responsive list padding.
• Dependency Updates: Several Wear Compose related dependencies, including wearCompose, wearComposeTooling, validatorPush, and watchFacePush, have been updated to their latest versions, ensuring the use of the most recent features and bug fixes.
• Lifecycle Compose Integration: New androidx.lifecycle.runtime.compose and androidx.lifecycle.viewmodel.compose dependencies have been added to support Compose-specific lifecycle handling within the application.
• Compose Preview Support: Dependencies for Compose Preview (androidx.ui.tooling and androidx.ui.tooling.preview) have been added to the wear/build.gradle.kts file, enhancing development workflow for UI components.
• Codebase Refactoring: The CallToActionScreen.kt and TransmissionScreen.kt files have been updated to remove Horologist imports and usage, adopt ResponsiveTransformingLazyColumn, and adjust CircularProgressIndicator styling to align with the new Wear Compose Material3 APIs.

Code Review

This pull request successfully removes the Horologist dependency and migrates to the new ResponsiveTransformingLazyColumn in Wear Compose. The dependency updates and removal of Horologist code are done correctly. However, I've found a couple of issues: one screen was not fully migrated, losing its responsive padding, and another screen has a compilation error due to a type mismatch when using the new component. My review includes suggestions to fix these issues.
