workbench.settings.applyToAllProfiles overwritten by inheriting profiles

[marleypowell]

Type: Bug

1. Create a default profile with more than one setting added to workbench.settings.applyToAllProfiles
2. Create a new profile which inherits settings from the default profile
3. Find one of the settings that should apply to all profiles in the UI
4. Notice that "Apply Setting to all Profiles" is unchecked
5. Check "Apply Setting to all Profiles" for the setting that is already in workbench.settings.applyToAllProfiles
6. Check settings.json and notice that all previous settings to apply to all profiles have been replaced with the single one selected from the UI

Before

After

Update: somehow temporarily fixed this by trying to modify the setting in the UI whilst having unsaved changes in the settings.json file. The issue came back after making more changes
