0d6839e8a8 UX: adjust algorithm for picking notification count
Our current algorithm for picking the number of notifications to display
when expanding the notifications relies on magic numbers.

Previously we only allowed for header and an estimate of maximum height of
notification container, this is not ideal as there is padding at the bottom
and top of the notification container

This adds a special number for padding.

The longer term fix though is to render the notification panel off screen
then grab the correct count, finally adding it back into view with.

This would allow for large fonts, small fonts, custom themes and much more.

9b10a78d82 FEATURE: Quick access panels in user menu (#8073)
* Extract QuickAccessPanel from UserNotifications.

* FEATURE: Quick access panels in user menu.

This feature adds quick access panels for bookmarks and personal
messages. It allows uses to browse recent items directly in the user
menu, without being redirected to the full pages.

* REFACTOR: Use QuickAccessItem for messages.

Reusing `DefaultNotificationItem` feels nice but it actually requires a
lot of extra work that is not needed for a quick access item.

Also, `DefaultNotificationItem` shows an incorrect tooptip ("unread
private message"), and it is not trivial to remove / override that.

* Use a plain JS object instead.

An Ember object was required when `DefaultNotificationItem` was used.

* Prefix instead suffix `_` for private helpers.

* Set to null instead of deleting object keys.

JavaScript engines can optimize object property access based on the
object’s shape. https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/shapes-ics

* Change trivial try/catch to one-liners.

* Return the promise in case needs to be waited on.

* Refactor showAll to a link with href

* Store `emptyStatePlaceholderItemText` in state.

* Store items in Session singleton instead.

We can drop `staleItems` (and `findStaleItems`) altogether. Because
`(old) items === staleItems` when switching back to a quick access
panel.

* Add `limit` parameter to the `user_actions` API.

* Explicitly import Session instead.
