Show collections in "Latest Pages" block

[Aaron Wells]

Currently the "Latest pages" block only shows pages, not collections. Pages that belong to collections are listed individually.

We should alter this block so that it shows a list of collections and pages, mingled together. So, the block will show one entry for each collection, and one entry for each "solo page" that doesn't belong to any collection. For collections, the "last updated" date will be the most recently updated page on the collection.

To distinguish collections from pages, the collections will show "Collection title (X pages)" similar to how collections are shown on the edit access screen.

To test:

1. Create collections C1, C2, C3
2. Create pages P1A, P1B, P2A, P2B, P2C, P4, P5
3. Put pages P1A & P1B into Collection C1
4. Put pages P2A, P2B, P2C into Collection C1
5. Edit the description of P1B.
6. Edit the description of P4.
7. Edit the description of P5.
8. Edit the description of P2B.
5. View the "Latest pages" block on your dashboard

Expected result: You should see these listings in the block, in this order: "C2 (3 pages)", P5, P4, "C1 (2 pages)"

(Collections that don't have any pages are not listed in the "Latest pages" block, because they don't have a display URL.)
