If a report has persistent filters disabled, it should not show the reset to default button.

====================
Issue this is trying to solve:
We have a report where users are looking to have quick way to toggle "today's data" and "historical data". We've implemented this via bookmarks.

The report is also defaulted to land on a predefined config on launch. We also made sure that this behaviour exist by disabling persistant filter for the report.

As users toggle between the bookmarks (which are mapped to button), they can always hit the "reset to default" to go back to the first view.

However, as users manipulate the other slicers, it is no longer considered a bookmark (expected), however, the reset button is now also disabled, because the report has disabled end user to "save filter".'

It creates a potential confusion, where depending on the sequence, the reset to default button appears, but doesn't do anything, but when we expect it to be usable, it's greyed out.

I think this is closest to this idea https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=0444248a-8332-4979-8998-cf72b491e142, but want to give a more precise case in our usage.
