Go back option for web ide

Problem

Currently, the link to the project to get out of the editor is very obscure and not reliable. We should introduce a clear visible way to let the user escape the current view (especially important for new users)

Proposal

Note: additionally we can offer the user:

  • to create a MR for the current branch if it is not yet existing

  • have an additional link directly to the MR if it is existing

  • show only "go back to merge request" if the user came from the MR (previous page is MR)

Design

  • For first iteration let's just keep to a "go back" button.
  • You can find go-back icon in gitlab-svgs.
