Disabling "show autofill menu on form fields" in safari seems reset after every update.

[jakeswenson]

Steps To Reproduce

1. In Safari, in the extension, goto settings > autofill
2. For "show autofill menu on form fields" select Off
3. Rejoice that this horrible feature is turned off
4. Update bitwarden
5. Browse the web to something you want to login to
6. See the autofill box show up
7. Goto settings > autofill
8. See the selection set to when field is selected.
9. Cry yourself to sleep

Expected Result

Selecting Off should be persisted permanently, across updates. I never want to use this feature.

Actual Result

It seems every so often (after update??) this feature rises from the grave to haunt me. I think it knows I don't like it.

Issue Tracking Info

• I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.

This has been happening to me a lot this year. Following updates through the Mac App Store, the Safari extension resets my "Show AutoFill on Form Fields" setting to on, when I prefer it off. This may also happen with other settings.

When updating from 2025.1.0 to 2025.1.1, the updater reset my selection for this setting:
Click items to autofill on Vault view

It was checked and then after updating to 2025.1.1, this setting was unchecked. Happened several times in different profiles, so it was definitely a setting that was reset by the new update.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, stop changing user settings / preferences in updates. Updates should honor the existing/previous setting.
