Issue/Introduction
The selected dependency type is ignored when adding a dependency in the Tasks Timeline View via the Add External Dependency option (it is always set Finish-Start).
Steps to Reproduce:
In the Modern UX, open any project and navigate to the Tasks module in the Timeline view.
Select a task and open the menu by right-clicking on it.
Select 'Add External Dependency'.
Select an Investment and a Task, and choose Type = 'Finish-Finish', 'Start-Finish' or 'Start-Start', then Add.
Expected Results: The new dependency has Type = 'Finish-Finish', 'Start-Finish' or 'Start-Start'.
Actual Results: The new dependency has Type = 'Finish-Start'.
