rustdoc: optimize loading of source sidebar

The source sidebar has a setting to remember whether it should be open or
closed. Previously, this setting was handled in source-script.js, which
is loaded with `defer`, meaning it is often run after the document is rendered.
Since CSS renders the source sidebar as closed by default, changing this
after the initial render results in a relayout.

Instead, handle the setting in storage.js, which is the first script to load
and is the only script that blocks render. This avoids a relayout and means
navigating between files with the sidebar open is faster.
