Your work: Sync sidebar counts with user bar counts
What does this MR do and why?
Use UserCounts for Your Work > To-Do List pill
Currently we let the backend expose the to do count on the super sidebar
nav item, while the User Bar uses the userCounts from JS, which is
updatable via the client (e.g. synced from other tabs, when opening
them, or mutated by certain actions in the UI).
By aligning the two, we can make sure that the UserBar at the top and the count in the sidebar are always aligned.

How to set up and validate locally
- Open a tab with the "your work sidebar", e.g. to-do list
- Open a new tab and generate either a new issue, todo or MR for your user.
- Reload that tab
- If you switch back to the first tab, the counts in the top should now match the counts in the sidebar
