Set prompts & model from URL query parameters

[nsarrazin]

To improve sharing rates we should be able to share links that set:

• system prompts
• model name
• maybe user prompt?

This will require:

• Setting the settings from URL query parameters
• A UI for crafting the shareable URL (that lets people share their config with the world)
• A UI when you receive the URL (to confirm that you want to sent model & prompt)

Looks like #164/#172/#621 already added support for handling ?model, e.g., https://huggingface.co/chat/?model=microsoft/Phi-3-mini-4k-instruct

Could something similar be added to take in ?q similar to ggerganov/llama.cpp#6554 without the other items of UI for crafting sharable URL, etc?

So something like https://huggingface.co/chat/?q=prompt similar to how https://chatgpt.com/?q=prompt works.

Perhaps a change in https://github.com/huggingface/chat-ui/blob/main/src/routes/%2Bpage.svelte

onMount(() => {
  const query = page.url.searchParams.get("q");
  if (query) createConversation(query);
});

I suppose if not automatically starting the conversation, it could pass the query to ChatWindow?
