Descripción
### Describe the bug
The AI assistant's prompt (`prompt_config`) can be stored and returned by the API, but there is no way to edit it, and saving AI settings silently overwrites whatever is stored with the built-in default.
`SaveSiteAI` substitutes the defaults whenever a request omits `prompt_config`:
https://github.com/apache/answer/blob/main/internal/service/siteinfo/siteinfo_service.go#L384-L389
```go
if req.PromptConfig == nil {
req.PromptConfig = &schema.AIPromptConfig{
ZhCN: constant.DefaultAIPromptConfigZhCN,
EnUS: constant.DefaultAIPromptConfigEnUS,
}
}
```
The admin form in `ui/src/pages/Admin/AiSettings/index.tsx` builds its payload from `enabled`, `chosen_provider` and `ai_providers` only, so it never sends `prompt_config`. Every save from that page therefore resets the prompt.
Combined, this means:
1. The prompt cannot be customised through the UI at all — there is no field for it.
2. A prompt set directly through the API survives only until somebody saves the AI settings page, then reverts silently with no warning and no indication in the UI that anything changed.
The backend side is fully implemented: `SiteAIReq` accepts `prompt_config`, `SaveSiteAI` persists it, `GetSiteAI` returns it, and `getPromptByLanguage` reads it and falls back to the constant when empty. Only the form is missing.
### Expected behavior
The prompt is editable in Admin → AI Settings, and saving other AI settings does not discard it.
### Steps to reproduce
1. Set a custom `en_us` prompt via `PUT /answer/admin/api/ai-config` with a `prompt_config` object.
2. Confirm it is stored (`GET /answer/admin/api/ai-config`).
3. In Admin → AI Settings, change nothing of substance and press Save.
4. Read the config again — the prompt is back to `DefaultAIPromptConfigEnUS`.
### Version
Reproduced on `main` (3b9f137) and on 2.0.2.
### Additional context
This surfaced while running the assistant against a vector-search plugin. `semantic_search` returns a `link` for every result, but the default prompt never asks the model to cite sources, so whether an answer links the thread it came from is left to the model. Being able to ask for citations in the prompt is the natural fix — which needs the prompt to be editable and to stay edited.
Happy to send a PR: the change is frontend-only, since the backend already supports the field.

Línea de trabajo
Comienza en ui/src/pages/Admin/AiSettings/index.tsx e inspecciona el payload creado para guardar la configuración de AI; después, compáralo con el campo prompt_config aceptado por el backend. Añade campos de prompt editables y asegúrate de que el prompt existente se incluya al guardar otras configuraciones. Verifica que un prompt personalizado permanezca sin cambios después de guardar el formulario Admin → AI Settings.
