Dedup shopping lists

First Check

• I used the GitHub search to find a similar requests and didn't find it.
• Checked the tasks tagged issues and verified my feature is not covered

Please provide a concise description of the problem that would be addressed by this feature.

I've noticed when adding a recipe to a shopping list, each of the ingredients is just added as a line item. This results in duplication of common items in the list, and the need to manually review for duplicates and add up the items.

Please provide a concise description of the feature that would resolve your issue.

Ideally having the ability to utilize the OpenAI API to dedupe and combined common items automatically would be wonderful.

This could potentially be done simply with a button you click right before shopping, or as a hook after items are added to the list.

Please consider and list out some caveats or tradeoffs made in your design decision

If it's implemented via a hook upon addition to the list, potentially having an option to disable it temporarily to avoid incurring API charges or the list being rewritten unintentionally to debug.

Currently the shopping list automatically labels and combines items that share the same ingredient and the same unit. Are your recipes parsed?
