As an IDEasy user, I want to make use of AI tools so that I can get smart coding assistance. Similar to #412 we want to offer various state-of-the-art solutions and alternatives to projects. This story is about continue. It comes as IntelliJ plugin and as VSCode plugin. Both a linked from their website and should be pre-configured for IDEasy (with active=false and tagged with ai).

There is a config.json file that is created after the plugin has been installed. But it is located in %USERPROFILE%\.continue\config.json.

For specific configuration there is possibility to create a .continuerc.json file in the root folder of the project. Reference: https://docs.continue.dev/customize/overview#per-workspace-configuration

How should we add the pre-configuration of this plugin or is it even reasonable?
