Description
Right now, when the scraper starts, it always creates new default settings. However, if the user has changed the settings and added, for example, an embedder, this will be removed. By default, if the initial index already exists, take the settings from this index.

Research direction
Start at the scraper startup path where default settings are created and inspect how the initial index is checked. Preserve settings, including an added embedder, when the initial index already exists; apply defaults only when it does not, and verify both cases with the relevant tests.
