Summary Web Inspector: Network: Request / Response menu ignores user’s previous setting

There is logic in `WI.ResourceClusterContentView` to remember the last used content view type per-resource. But if it's a custom content view that hasn't yet loaded for that resource, the "Request" content view is used as a fallback. And due to a timing bug, the custom content views are always loaded after the fallback is used. We've received multiple requests from users over time to adopt a _per-resource type_ memoization of the last used content view. For example, for SVG files to remember and use the "Response (DOM Tree)" content view instead of the image preview: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307330#c2
