Typo from someone I expect. I've seen in corrected in other (yet to be merged) PRs.

What?
Removes the default behaviour of navigating to the navigation focus mode editor when clicking on a single Navigation Menu in the "Site Hub" (left hand black sidebar). Instead remains showing the full editor canvas.
Retains the ability to access the navigation menu focus mode via a new
Editoption to the Navigation Menu's options.This PR is an alternative to #59340. I did try to work on that PR but it had diverged from
trunkand so - having confirmed with @draganescu - it made sense to start afresh.Co-authored-by: Andrei Draganescu 107534+draganescu@users.noreply.github.com

Why?
During the discussion in #59340 contributors raised valid concerns regarding the utility of the focused navigation menu edit mode. Principally some contributors utilise this to edit menus which are not currently used within a Template (which incidentally is exactly why it exists!).
Therefore this PR does not remove the ability to edit a Navigation Menu in the focused editor mode, but rather deprioritises it in the default UX of interacting with
Navigationin the Site Hub sidebar.How?
Now when clicking on a single Navigation Menu you are shown the details of that menu in the siderbar but the editor canvas does not enter "focus mode". This avoids the confusion that has been associated with this view which is really aimed at more advanced use cases.
The ability to access the Navigation Menu in focus mode is retained via the addition of an
Editlink in the Navigation Menu's options menu.Testing Instructions
