Super sidebar expanded on load for user preference pages

Scott de Jonge requested to merge 391285-super-sidebar-expanded-profile-settings into master

What does this MR do and why?

Keep the sidebar expanded by default on certain pages (while the viewport is ≥ 1200px), regardless if a user has previously collapsed the sidebar. The user can still choose to collapse the sidebar while on these pages, though the preference will not be maintained. This exposes important information on these pages that a user may not know exists otherwise.
