feedback-manager: Rotate profiles on touch to quick-settings

Currently, there exist three different feedback profiles: "full", "quiet", "silent", but quick settings touch only switches in-between "full" and "silent". Instead, rotate from "full" to "quiet" to "silent" and back to "full"

It seems that was briefly discussed in !276 (merged) and !318 (merged), so I guess there is a chance that it gets rejected. If that is the case, I apologize for the noise. However, I still make the attempt for these reasons:

  • This has been the default behavior for every Android phone which I can remember of, and my (personal) experience was quite intuitive (maybe I just got used to it?). Although I guess the goal is not to be Android, maybe that says something about the UI :)
  • It took me a while to realize that there were three feedback profiles instead of two, which felt like the logical thing as I could only easily swap between "full" and "silent".
  • When I manually set the profile to "quiet" under "Notifications" settings, any touch to the feedback quick settings button will exit the profile and never come back to it.
