I feel hesitant to use modifyClass but wasn’t able to come up with a better way (cc @david / @cvx)

The "Enable AI search discoveries" checkbox in user preferences wasn't persistin…g changes. The UI showed "saved" but the value never reached the database. The Interface controller's `saveAttrNames` is a computed property that returns a new array on each access. While the plugin called `addSaveableUserOptionField()`, this only registers the field with the User model. The controller filters which fields to save via `saveAttrNames`, and since `ai_search_discoveries` wasn't in that list, it was excluded from the save request. Fix by using `modifyClass` to extend the controller's `save()` action, pushing `ai_search_discoveries` to `saveAttrNames` at the moment of saving before calling the parent method.
