Description

### What problem does this address?

Currently, when you toggle new episode notifications off and back on, the selected podcasts gets reset (to all). This means that if you accidentally hit this toggle, you have to reselect the podcasts you want to get notified of.

### What is your proposed solution?

It seems like it would be better to keep the list of selected podcasts even when notifications are toggled off.

### Did you search for existing feature suggestions?

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the new-episode notification toggle and the selected-podcast state, then verify that turning notifications off and on preserves the existing selection instead of resetting it to all podcasts.
