 Administration: add a new settings tab to manage slugs customization

 Compared to [13442], change the logic of Components user navigation
 generation by introducing a `BP_Component::register_nav()` method to
 globalize the nav items early (ie: the registration step) and make them
 available for the new settings tab to manage slugs customization.

 After a second thought, the `BP_Component::setup_nav()` should remain the
 navigation generation step instead of playing the registration role. This
 will maximize backward compatibility & third party plugins wishing their
 slugs to be customizable will need to "opt-in" for BP Rewrites using the
 `BP_Component::register_nav()` method.

 This first version of the URLs settings tab does not handle slugs
 customization yet, its first usage is to make sure all BP Components user
 navigation slugs were registered & to put the Accordion UI in place.
