2026396 - Make table instructions configurable via pref

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Machine Learning: General, task)

Description

[Bryan]

Currently - models are instructed not to produce markdown tables as part of the system prompt (chat feature).

We want to allow the user to configure these instructions using a pref.

In this patch - we need to:

1. move table instructions out of system prompt and replace them with {tableInstructions}
2. add chat_no_table_instructions prompt type
3. [Optionally] add chat_table_instructions prompt type
4. Update MC code to check pref and hydrate system prompt (chat prompt) based on the pref value
