Log as-needed Vehicle & Station checks

Summary

As Needed Checks in PSTrax let you log inspections or set alerts on any task at any time, regardless of its schedule. These checks are ideal for situations like post-incident walkarounds, fuel logging, or verifying equipment condition outside of normal rotation. They do not affect scheduled due dates or checklist intervals.
