New: Dashboard navigation preference saving

From @beckyvb:

A 'section' is a top-level nav item. They are the 3 or 4 nav items you see in the nav bar (Dashboard, Moderation, Settings, Analytics).

We save three navigation preferences for a user:

  1. We save the user preferences for the collapsed state of the navigation. If a user collapses or expands the side panel navigation's sections, we'll save that state for the next time they visit a section.

  2. We save the last page a user visited in a section. If they click on a link in the side panel's navigation and then navigate away from a section and then return, the section's landing page will be the last page they visited in that section.

  3. We save the last section a user visited. If a user leaves the dashboard and later returns (i.e., visits /dashboard/settings or /settings), they'll land on the last section they visited.

All of these are to save the user clicks and let them tailor the dashboard to their specific needs.
