Descripción
### Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
_No response_
### Proposed solution
The effortLevel setting in ~/.copilot/config.json is correctly applied when a new session starts. However, when switching models mid-session using the /model command, the effort level resets to "medium" by
default instead of inheriting the value from the config.
Expected behavior: When switching models via /model, the effort level should default to the value set in config.json (effortLevel), so users don't have to manually re-select it every time.
Suggested improvement: Either:
1. Pre-select the configured effortLevel in the /model effort picker UI, or
2. Support per-model default effort levels in config.json (e.g., "models": { "claude-sonnet-4.6": { "effortLevel": "high" } })
Steps to reproduce:
1. Set "effortLevel": "high" in ~/.copilot/config.json
2. Start a new session — effort level is correctly "high" ✅
3. Use /model to switch to another model — effort level resets to "medium" ❌
4. Use /model to switch back — still "medium" ❌

Guía de contribución
Línea de trabajo
Empieza por el manejo del comando /model y la carga de ~/.copilot/config.json; después, reproduce el cambio con effortLevel establecido en high. Sigue el lugar donde el selector de esfuerzo toma su valor predeterminado durante un cambio de modelo; se considera terminado cuando cambiar de modelo conserva el effortLevel configurado en lugar de restablecerlo a medium.
