Enhance DashboardNavigation Component with User Settings Integration

- Updated DashboardNavigation to utilize user settings for appearance and navigation label preferences, improving user experience.
- Introduced logic to dynamically set theme mode and density based on user preferences and application settings.
- Refactored useEffect to ensure settings are applied only when user settings are loaded, enhancing performance and reliability.
