Persist settings per-computer; add Reset to Defaults in General tab

- New core/app_settings.py: load/save settings.json to platform config dir
  (Windows: %APPDATA%, Linux: ~/.config, macOS: ~/Library/Application Support)
- MainWindow loads saved settings on startup, saves on every Apply & Close
- Settings survive profile switches and app restarts independently of profiles
- Settings > General: Reset to Defaults button with QMessageBox confirmation
