[compass_app] replace `SharedPreferences` with `SharedPreferencesWithCache` (or `SharedPreferencesAsync`)

https://pub.dev/packages/shared_preferences:

Starting with version 2.3.0 there are three available APIs that can be used in this package. [SharedPreferences] is a legacy API that will be deprecated in the future. We highly encourage any new users of the plugin to use the newer [SharedPreferencesAsync] or [SharedPreferencesWithCache] APIs instead.

Consider migrating existing code to one of the new APIs. See below for more information.

Hi! I'm new to open source and would like to work on this issue as my first contribution. I understand this involves migrating from SharedPreferences to SharedPreferencesWithCache/SharedPreferencesAsync in the compass_app. I've read the migration guide, but haven't started implementation yet. Would it be okay if I take this on? I might need some guidance along the way.

@ericwindmill - could you assign this to me if it's available?
