Configurable time tracking restrictions for completed items (per Tracker field)
in progress

Problem:
Users in our organization often log time on items after they've already been moved to a "Done/Completed" status. This distorts sprint metrics, reduces data accuracy, and makes audit trails unreliable. Today there's no way to prevent or limit this in Teamhood.
Proposed solution:
Add two new settings to the Tracker field configuration (Workspace → Item fields → Tracker):
- Allow time logging on completed items (toggle on/off) — when off, time entries are blocked on items in a "Done/Completed" status.
- Backdating limit (number of days) — defines how far back users can register time entries (e.g. 7 days). A value of 0 / "unlimited" preserves current behavior.
Keeping these as Tracker-field-level settings lets admins enforce stricter time-tracking discipline where needed, without imposing a single rule on all Teamhood customers.

Partially releted to this, I would also add the possibility to disable tacking of time on parent items if there are child items. Sometimes users tack time on parent item that is a macro activity. This cause a lower level of detail on tacking the time spent on a certain activity
