Extend REST API for user preferences to set My menu items
PUT on '/accounts/<account-id>/preferences' now allows to set the menu
items for the 'My' top level menu. With this users can now completely
customize their 'My' menu.
The 'My' menu items are stored in the 'All-Users' project in the
'refs/users/<x>/<account-id>' branch inside of a 'preference.config'
file. The 'preference.config' file is a Git config file. Each 'My'
menu item is stored in a 'my' subsection where the subsection name is
the name of the menu item:
[my "Change"]
url = #/
[my "Drafts"]
url = #/q/is:draft
Unlike other user preferences the 'My' menu items are not stored in
the database because storing a list of menu items in a single database
field would be bad. In future other preferences may be moved into the
'preference.config' file as well.
