Push Notifications

Announcements trigger FCM push notifications:

// FCM listener in main.dart
FirebaseMessaging.onMessage.listen((RemoteMessage message) {
  if (message.data['type'] == 'ANNOUNCEMENT') {
    // Show in-app banner or navigate to announcement detail
    EventBus.instance.emit('NEW_ANNOUNCEMENT', message.data);
  }
});

// Background handler
FirebaseMessaging.onBackgroundMessage(_firebaseMessagingBackgroundHandler);
