Add UI for toggling sticky scroll

[gjsjohnmurray]

Type: Feature Request

There is a bit of space at the start of the breadcrumb which could accommodate a pin / pinned codicon with which to toggle the stickyScroll setting.

When no DocumentSymbolProvider is available the space could either be blank or could show the pin codicon if the setting is currently false and the pinned-dirty if true, with a hover tip explaining why sticky scrolling isn't happening for the current document.

I would go with the more traditional entry in the "View"-menu first, similar to existing action. The pin/unpin icon in breadcrumbs might be seen as noisy for when you don't want to use sticky scroll (appears like an ad)

@aiday-mar This is how it is done for the breadcrumbs toggle

We can also combine this with https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/156457 and add context menu entries for breadcrumbs and sticky-scroll to toggle them in-place

I'll look into this
