fix: show resource ID in dropdown when user lacks list permission

When a user has a farm/queue ID configured but lacks permission to list
farms/queues, the settings dropdown would show '<none selected>'. Now it
displays the configured ID instead, allowing users with limited
permissions to still see their configured resources.
