It should be possible for a 3rd party plugin to contribute a related link to one of the icons on the Navigation Menu such that the icon is highlighted as "active" when you browse to that page.

For example if you define a related link in the "git" category, and browse to the link, the Nav Menu should highlight the git category while you're on the page. Currently this highlighting only works for Orion's built-in Git pages.

- SideMenu: refactor active category computation to use link's uriTemplate
- Fix: globalCommands didn't provide relatedLink info to SideMenu when relatedLink refs a nav command
- Handle relatedLink "exclusions" at render time in SideMenu, not construction time in globalCommands
