Oliver Azevedo BarnesandBen Kunkle a710669e03 edit_prediction: Expose allow_data_collection in settings (#51389)
Closes #48394

Moves the data collection preference for Zed's Edit Predictions out of
the internal KV store and into `settings.json` as a proper
`allow_data_collection` setting under `edit_predictions`.

**Migration:** Existing users' choices are preserved. When
`allow_data_collection` is absent from `settings.json`, the resolved
value falls back to the legacy KV entry
(`zed_predict_data_collection_choice`). Once the user toggles the
setting or sets it explicitly, the new setting takes precedence and the
KV entry is ignored.

**Bug fixed:** The original implementation of `toggle_data_collection`
read the raw (unresolved) settings content to determine the current
state. When `allow_data_collection` was absent from `settings.json` but
the KV store held `"true"`, the raw read returned `None → false`,
causing the first toggle click to write `Some(true)` (re-enabling)
instead of `Some(false)` (disabling). The fix reads the resolved
`is_data_collection_enabled()` value before entering the
`update_settings_file` closure.

## Manual testing

**Setting takes effect:**
1. Open settings (`cmd+,`) and add `"allow_data_collection": true` under
`edit_predictions`. Save.
2. Open a file — the data collection indicator in the editor should
reflect the enabled state.
3. Flip to `false` and confirm it updates.

**Toggle correctly disables from KV-enabled state (migration bug fix):**
1. Remove `allow_data_collection` from `settings.json`.
2. Write the legacy KV entry directly:
   ```
   sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Zed/db/0-dev/db.sqlite \
"INSERT OR REPLACE INTO kv_store(key,value)
VALUES('zed_predict_data_collection_choice','true');"
   ```
3. Restart Zed. The data collection toggle should show as **enabled**
(reading from KV store).
4. Click the toggle once to disable. `allow_data_collection` should
appear as `false` in `settings.json` — not `true`, which was the pre-fix
behaviour.

**Upsell modal still appears for new users:**
1. Clear both KV keys and restart:
   ```
   sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Zed/db/0-dev/db.sqlite \
"DELETE FROM kv_store WHERE key IN
('zed_predict_data_collection_choice','dismissed-edit-predict-upsell');"
   ```
2. Open any file so the status bar is visible.
3. Click the edit prediction button (bottom-right status bar) — it
should have a muted dot indicator.
4. The upsell modal should appear. Dismissing it should prevent it from
reappearing.

## Release Notes:

- `allow_data_collection` for Zed's Edit Predictions can now be set
explicitly in `settings.json` under `edit_predictions`. Existing
preferences stored in the internal database are preserved as a fallback.

Licensing

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
