Bringing Meta and Chat to the sidebar

_{copied nearly in its entirety from here - much like Bernie Sanders, I am once again asking :D}

In the old days, the links to meta and chat were front and center in the top bar. They're hidden under the SE/hamburger menu and its hugely unintuitive. This practically results in underutilisation of tools helpful for a healthy community - our second space (meta) and third space (chat) could use more love.

Especially considering the whole intent of the sidebar initially was to inline teams into regular sites, and teams essentially is its own thing now, it seems a better use of that space

It also means it's a lot clearer to users how to find the per site meta or main chatroom for the site
