Retrieves a detailed period-by-period breakdown of all support contingents for a specific project.

**What are Support Contingents?**
Support contingents are retainer plans that define allocated hours and pricing for support periods. They help manage support contracts with predefined hours, rates, and transferability of unused hours.

**What is returned:**
- All support contingents for the project
- For each contingent: period-by-period breakdown from start date until present day
- Each period includes: start/end dates, allocated hours, hours from previous period (if transferable), consumed hours, and list of tasks
- Tasks include: title, short number, hours billed, invoice number (if billed), and unbilled flag (if in progress)
- Current period includes unbilled tasks with their spent hours
- Periods are sorted newest first, active contingents appear before inactive ones
- Tasks within each period are sorted with unbilled tasks first, then by short number

**Note:** Requires project access and `Projects.canSeeSupportContingentDetails` permission.
