Prevent Windows Terminal from (needlessly) changing settings.json

[skrysmanski]

I have a "hand crafted" settings.json since the earliest days of Windows Terminal. I have this file under version control (via Git).

The current version of Windows Terminal (1.15) seems to overwrite/rewrite my settings.json every time Windows Terminal is opened/closed.

Is there any way to prevent Windows Terminal from doing this?

It is, of course, okay that WT rewrites the file if I use the settings UI to change some settings. But it shouldn't do this if I don't use the UI.

See #14610 (comment) for the reason.
