## Description:
- Fixes oppia#3641  
This PR simplifies the navigation logic in `AddProfileActivity` and
documents the reasoning behind not using `finish()` in
`ExitProfileDialogFragment`.

### Changes Made:
- **AddProfileActivity:**  
- Replaced the use of `Intent` with `FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP` by calling
`finish()`.
- With the live data bug resolved, the activity stack can now be managed
more cleanly without requiring a new intent.

  **Benefits:**  
  - Avoids unnecessary activity recreation.  
  - Improves navigation efficiency and reduces overhead.  

- **ExitProfileDialogFragment:**  
- Retained the use of an `Intent` to navigate to
`ProfileChooserActivity` instead of switching to `finish()`.
  - **Reason:**  
- `ProfileChooserActivity` is not directly below the current activity in
the stack.
- If `finish()` were used, the app would incorrectly navigate to
`PinPasswordActivity`, resulting in undesirable behavior.

### Testing:
1. Verified that `AddProfileActivity` correctly navigates back to
`ProfileChooserActivity` using `finish()` without activity recreation.
2. Confirmed that `ExitProfileDialogFragment` behaves as expected,
retaining the correct navigation path through `Intent` to
`ProfileChooserActivity`.

### Summary:
This PR ensures cleaner navigation for `AddProfileActivity` by using
`finish()`, while maintaining correct behavior in
`ExitProfileDialogFragment` by continuing to use an intent-based
approach. This makes the app more efficient while preserving user
experience.

### Video Demo as everything is working fine.
