fix(todo): reminders at the minute on Android 13 on, through USE_EXACT_ALARM (ADR 0033, D31)

SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM is off from Android 14 on until the person allows it
in Alarms & reminders, so every reminder was scheduled inexact and could
come minutes late. USE_EXACT_ALARM is granted with the install to an app
reminding of what a person planned, and AlarmManager.canScheduleExactAlarms
(which flutter_local_notifications' canScheduleExactNotifications asks) is
true with it, so reminders are exactAllowWhileIdle. SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM
stays for Android 12 and 12L, which don't know the other, up to API 32.

Whats-New: Reminders arrive on the minute.
