[IMP] (ai)_*: introduce AI actions in chat sessions

PR #123946

EnterprisemasteraiHigh impact

Discuss users can now guide AI chat behavior with options such as web search, strict source-based answers, deeper reasoning, and automatic action approval. These controls give teams more flexibility and confidence by making AI responses better match each conversation's needs.

Original PR description

This commit introduces new AI actions in Discuss chats to give users
granular control over their AI chat experience.

The 3 new actions include:
- Web Search: Enables the web search tool (even if not in the agent's
  default skills) and encourages its use. Toggling it off explicitly
  blocks the agent from searching the web.
- Strict to Sources: Restricts the agent's ability to search for
  answers to exclusively use the provided RAG sources.
- Think Longer: Increases the agent's reasoning level/depth.

Technical Details:
- State Management: The three options are stored as session state
  attributes, with default values inherited from the agent settings.
- Validation: "Web Search" and "Strict to Sources" are mutually
  exclusive. This rule is enforced and validated on both the frontend
  and the backend.
- API Updates: Compressed the session settings into a single
  `ai_session_config` dictionary for the `generate_response` API.
- Synchronization: State changes from the backend to the frontend are
  communicated via the mail store. Frontend to backend communication
  is passed through the `generate_response` payload.
- Tests: Adapted existing tests and added new test cases to cover the
  new configurations and the mutual exclusivity validation.
