fix(settings): fold the About section into the user-card dropdown

Eleven sections on the settings sidebar was one over the comfort
line. About is three small cards (identity, links, update check) that
collectively get read once or twice a year and didn't earn a top-level
slot. Hide it from the in-shell nav and surface it as "About HealthLog"
in the sidebar user-card dropdown (mobile dropdown mirrors). The
`/settings/about` route stays alive so direct links, the public
`/about` permalink, and the dropdown entry continue to resolve.
