Is this a configurable setting?  If so where do I find it?

It's not configurable.  It's always enabled in the video doorbell, and is automatically enabled in cameras that support it when they are connected to AC power (not the solar panel).

It had disappeared again due to the rollback of the firmware.
When will there be a new firmware available so the foresight function will be added again?

Firmware support Arlo Foresight for the Arlo Video Doorbell should be available again soon. I will provide an update when we have more information.
