Add settings synchronization

[Sceleratis]

Something that has frustrated me with Cline and Roo, and one of the reasons I often found myself drifting back to Copilot, is that the extension settings are stored off in a separate file somewhere and the only way to transfer settings between machines is to export and import. It would be nice to have an option to sync our settings so they stay consistent across machines (I use multiple computers and virtual machines, hence why this has been annoying for me lol.)

Cline and Kilocode both have their own websites/APIs which you can sign into within the extension. That being the case, I feel like it wouldn't be a huge technical hurdle to just also use that connection to (optionally) sync settings to the account so they're consistent on all instances signed into the same account. Orrr if possible at least a way to just sync them using the normal VSCode settings sync stuff....

All in all, it's just been getting annoying having to constantly export and import settings to keep instructions and whatever else consistent between them, whereas Copilot (for example) just syncs everything using VSCode's settings sync.

Related to #716, maybe merge ?

Im the author of #716 that @HadesArchitect referenced. I concur with everything you are saying! Ill add that the settings export in Kilo is nice, but it doesnt export the chats. I actually tried to use it last night, when I left work I made sure to export everything, especially because I was in the middle of working on a very specific problem and I knew I wouldnt want to continue without my recent context. I was able to get everything setup pretty quickly on my laptop, but no chat context!

I would even go as far to say this would be a feature that Kilo could probably charge a tiny bit for. Charge $3 a month to cover the cost of storing the file or let free users handle storing and syncing the file themselves (or just leave it in their workspace, for those of us who use Codespace).

Yes, please implement synchronization of the settings and chat history, the both, somehow.
