Thomas Trompette 1f9c4cf5b9 fix(front): home redirect honors first object of the navigation menu (#21626)
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/db11f02c-4502-4adc-8cf7-55d3dc0211a6

## Summary

Fixes [#21166](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/issues/21166). Going
to the workspace root (`/`) always redirected to the
alphabetically-first object.

Following [the review
discussion](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/issues/21166#issuecomment-4611570420),
this redirects to the **first object of the navigation menu** instead of
the last-visited object. "Last-visited" had too many edge cases (which
page? records vs. index?), whereas the first item of the user's menu is
unambiguous and matches what they see at the top of the left sidebar.

## Changes

- New `getFirstObjectNavigationMenuItemLink` util walks the workspace
navigation menu items in display order (sorted by `position`) and
returns the link of the first object-backed item (`OBJECT`/`VIEW`) the
user can read.
- `useDefaultHomePagePath` uses it as the primary target. It stays on
`AppPath.Index` until navigation menu items have loaded (they load
*after* the minimal-metadata fast path, so resolving earlier would land
on the wrong object during the post-login window), then falls back to
the first readable object if the menu has no object item.

Scope is intentionally minimal: the last-visited tracking is left in
place and will be cleaned up separately now that the redirect no longer
reads it.

## Test plan

- `npx jest useDefaultHomePagePath
--config=packages/twenty-front/jest.config.mjs` — covers menu order
honored over alphabetical, `VIEW` item links, the loading deferrals
(object metadata + navigation menu items), the readable-object fallback,
and the no-readable-object profile-settings fallback.
- Manually: visit a non-first object, navigate to `/`, confirm the
redirect goes to the first object of the navigation menu.
