Create a new section in our navigation for pages that contain items associated to a user

Problem to solve

Today, there is no central location for items that are associated to a user. Assigned items such as Issues and Merge requests, as well as things such as Projects, Snippets and other content related to a user are all on separate pages that are not connected to one another.

Proposal

Introduce a "Your work" section within our navigation that houses items that are specific to a user. This provides a central location for users to find and navigate between content that ties to them.

This addition of a sidebar on these pages also allows us the ability to move in the direction of a single sidebar navigation rather than also including a top navbar.

Implementation Guide

• Prototype Link
• Designs in Figma

Include the following items in a section called "Your work":

• Projects
• Groups
• Issues (assigned)
• Merge requests (assigned)
• To-Do List
• Milestones
• Snippets
• Activity

Dashboards

• Environments
• Operations
• Security (grouping that contains the following subitems)
  • Security dashboard
  • Vulnerability report
  • Settings

Other details (may need split out)

• Add a root level for this section in the breadcrumbs titled "Your work". This will link to the first item in this section – "Projects" (this is similar to User Settings behavior)
• This change involves creating a new button group on the Merge Request page to toggle between "Assigned" and "Review requests" (with counts). See design below
