JonKazama-Hellion 4b43fdb0ad fix(settings): conditional refilter on save — preserve chat history for cosmetic changes
Settings.Save() unconditionally ran ClearAllTabs + FilterAllTabsAsync
after every save. The cycle reloads messages from the DB, which silently
wipes any in-session message that wasn't persisted — Privacy-First
configurations block most channels from the DB, so all unlogged
channels (Allgemein/Say/Yell/Shout under default filters) showed up
empty after every settings save.

New HasFilterRelevantChanges helper compares Mutable to Plugin.Config
across:
- PrivacyFilterEnabled
- PrivacyPersistChannels (HashSet<ChatType>)
- PrivacyPersistUnknownChannels
- FilterIncludePreviousSessions
- per-persistent-tab: Identifier (reorder/swap), SelectedChannels,
  ExtraChatAll, ExtraChatChannels

Refilter only runs if any of those changed. Cosmetic settings (theme,
tab icons, layout, fonts, language) leave the chat log untouched.
Combined with the prior UpdateFrom Identifier-mapping fix and the
TempTab skip in ClearAllTabs/FilterAllTabs, both persistent and
Auto-Tell tabs now fully survive a settings save.

Reported by Flo from in-game testing 2026-05-05/06: 'der allgemein
chat tab z.b immernoch gecleart wird' / 'alle vom plugin nicht
geloggten channel sind dann leer'.

Also updated yaml changelog, docs/CHANGELOG.md and .github/forge-posts/
v1.2.0.md to describe the actual fix shape rather than the partial
UpdateFrom-only fix that preceded it.
