The personal menu and notifications are rendered separately in the existing Timeless and Minerva. This will soon be the case in Vector as well (T266536). This creates a need for architectural changes at the skin level.
# Acceptance criteria
## Changes in core
[] It's proposed that a new menu placeholder is added to core for notification menu items that is modifiable by SkinTemplateNavigation::Universal
[] SkinMustache will read from this menu item and prepend to personal tools for skins so that they are not impacted by this change.
[] SkinMustache will be versioned so that skins using SkinMustache can update themselves safely to include the new menu.
# changes in Echo
[] Echo will be updated to use the new menu. This should involve using SkinTemplateNavigation::Universal to add to the new menu. It may require some CSS/HTML ID changes as menu IDs are tied to the menu they belong to
# changes in Skin
[] Vector will be updated to read from the new menu
[] Modern (which uses SkinMustache) will be updated to read from the new menu
[] Compatibility code in core will be dropped.
# Developer notes
We'd need some kind of versioning for this in SkinMustache to make the transition as smooth as possible. The existence of SkinTemplate skins would have to be handled separately.
