feat: add active search space management to Electron API and UI

- Introduced IPC channels for getting and setting the active search space, enhancing user experience across the application.
- Updated the preload script to expose new API methods for active search space management.
- Modified the main window and quick ask functionalities to sync the active search space based on user navigation.
- Enhanced the desktop and web applications to allow users to select and manage their default search space seamlessly.
- Implemented automatic synchronization of the active search space during login and navigation events.
