Hide memory track by default #2301

When using the built-in profiler, memory measurements are shown by default in the profiles. The UI is already rather full of information, and memory measurements don't often tell anything too useful (when one is profiling some non-memory related perf issue). It would be nice to be able to hide Memory information by default.

We are getting into a state where we have lots of potential timeline based data, that may be useful to a small set of people. The header is also getting quite crowded. Perhaps it's time to re-think a "timeline" tab, where we could move things our of the header?

Here are various timelines that make things busy:

Memory track
Network track
(proposed) Event delay track
Browsertime track

As a quick mitigation, I think a way from the track selector panel to hide/show all the memory tracks or all the network tracks with a single click would go a long way.

Screenshot tracks also make things busy.
