Description
This PR implements integration with popular accounting platforms QuickBooks and Xero, addressing issue #176. Users can now connect their ExpenseFlow accounts to external accounting software for seamless expense synchronization.
Changes Made
Backend Implementation
New Model: AccountingConnection.js - Stores OAuth tokens and connection details for each user-platform pair
New Service: accountingService.js - Handles OAuth flows, token refresh, and expense synchronization logic
New Routes: accounting.js - RESTful API endpoints for authentication and sync operations
Model Update: Added syncedToAccounting field to Expense.js to track synchronization status
Server Configuration: Added accounting routes to Express app in server.js
Dependencies: Added intuit-oauth and xero-node packages to package.json
API Endpoints Added
GET /api/accounting/auth/:platform - Initiates OAuth flow for QuickBooks/Xero
GET /api/accounting/callback/:platform - Handles OAuth callback and token storage
GET /api/accounting/connections - Retrieves user's connected accounting platforms
POST /api/accounting/sync/:platform - Synchronizes unsynced expenses to accounting platform
DELETE /api/accounting/disconnect/:platform - Removes accounting platform connection
Features Implemented

Token Management: Automatic token refresh handling
Expense Synchronization: One-way sync from ExpenseFlow to accounting platforms
