The admin landing (overview) and the tools pages (ssh-access, system) call
populateSidebar() without first loading window.configData. On a cold admin
visit — e.g. navigating straight from the dashboard — configData is undefined,
so populateSidebar() bails early and the sidebar renders empty. Visiting
Backups happened to set window.configData, which is why returning to admin
afterward showed the sidebar.
Load (cached) config data up front in renderConfig before any branch renders so
the sidebar always has its categories. The config-category path's later
loadConfig is now a cache hit.
