Re-opening this issue because #4231 initialized the states of the UI and the provider stores, but not the feature flag store's state. |

Problem
Currently, we check the
DEPLOYMENT_ENVvalue every time we access the feature flag state.This is probably unnecessary because the env variable will not be changed, or the changed variable will not be read by the Nuxt app, during the run of the app.
Description
We should initialize the flag status (enabled/disabled/switchable) and the default state when initializing the feature flag store. This will make the flag state (on/off) lookup much easier and faster.
Alternatives
If the state of the feature flags was kept somewhere online, we could update a flag status/state without having to deploy the app. Then we would need to fetch this file every time we call the feature flag status/state getter, and would need to re-evaluate every time, even on the client.
