Description of the new feature/enhancement

I think it would be great if we have a method to enabled the Windows Terminal preferences (settings.json) synchronization, such as syncing with the singed in Microsoft Store account.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Adding a preference to the settings.json to enable the syncing.
