Josh HawkinsandGitHub 48aaafba3c re-apply runtime overrides to the config without re-broadcasting them (#23739)
/api/config/set and camera deletion re-parse yaml into a fresh FrigateConfig and swap it in, then re-layered the persisted runtime toggle overrides so a camera the user turned off wouldn't come back on. That re-layer ran apply_runtime_state, which replays each override through the command handlers, so every save re-published a ZMQ config update, a retained MQTT state message, and a runtime-state disk write for every camera with a stored toggle. All of it was redundant: the worker processes were never swapped and still hold the live toggle values, so only the in-process config object the API and dispatcher read was out of date. The extra traffic churned the retained MQTT topics, amplified disk writes, and co-drained enabled updates with other topics on the config socket.

Add Dispatcher.reapply_runtime_state_to_config, which corrects only the swapped-in config object, mirroring the field mutations and gates of the _on_*_command handlers with no ZMQ, MQTT, or disk writes. swap_runtime_config now calls it instead of apply_runtime_state; apply_runtime_state is unchanged and still used at startup, where the workers genuinely must be told.
