Enhancement: Microsoft 365 purview integration - Improve Data Source Toggle Management

Bug Fixes
Issue: We fixed the issue for either unsent or active holds that already had a questionnaire, modifying the hold notice by copying from a hold template caused the questionnaire toggle to turn off, resulting in the questionnaire disappearing.
Tracking code: LH-17411
Issue: We fixed an issue where matter security was not being transferred to Legal Hold when multiple holds were created on the same private matter by someone other than the original matter creator. This was due to the hold creator’s security not being synced by User or Group. Security would only sync after the matter was flagged with "Update Matter Info" and the Sync Task ran.
Tracking code: LH-17690
Issue: We fixed the issue with the date picker filter under ‘Manage Groups’.
Tracking code: LH-14833
Issue: We fixed an issue with the Contact Me notifications being sent to incorrect recipients when the hold is created by system.
Tracking code: LH-17583
Issue: We have resolved the issue with the Questionnaire tab, which returns an Oops error if a user pastes a 2000 character text with break lines on a large text question response.
Tracking code: LH-17427
Issue: We have resolved the issue with the Graph M365, where the Custodian status will not change to ‘on hold’ when the Teams toggle is set to on.
Tracking code: LH-17589
Issue: We've fixed an issue impacting the Questionnaire Analysis report, ensuring consistent responses and inclusion of all answers. We've also fixed the error causing multi-select questions, particularly those with options containing commas, to be excluded from the CSV report, resulting in a more complete and consistent report.
Tracking code: LH-17894
Issue: We have resolved the issue where inactive recipients were unable to view active holds assigned to them on their Received Holds tab within the Manage People section.
Tracking code: LH-17885
Issue: We have resolved the issue with the CSV export functionality in the "Custom Report Designer" to ensure correct column alignment when opening reports in Microsoft Excel.
Tracking code: LH-17892

Tracking code: LH-17676
Issue: Legal Hold Application Issue with Incomplete Releases
Description: We've fixed the issue where the Legal Hold application stops during hold releases and would lock holds after restarting, preventing users from releasing them again. The problem occurred because a system crash prevented the transaction from completing, leaving the flag unchanged. A new method now sets the flag to false on server restart, enabling holds to be released again.
