This PR splits up the preference that controls the count vs dot and destination of sidebar links, which is really hard to understand, into 2 simpler checkboxes:
The new preferences/checkboxes are off by default, but there are database migrations to switch the old preference to the new ones so that existing users don't have to update their preferences to keep their preferred behavior of sidebar links when this changed is rolled out.
Internal topic: t/103529.
These accidental inclusions are mostly no-ops (because the method name is also included as an explicit symbol). The mistakes were made more obvious because syntax_tree adjusted the indentation of these methods
User options were serialized at the root level of CurrentUserSerializer,
but UserSerializer has a user_option field. This inconsistency caused
issues in the past because user_option fields had to be duplicated on
the frontend.
