The Website app no longer shows the Model Pages menu item in developer mode. This removes an option that was often irrelevant because it could appear even when no model pages existed, making the website management menu cleaner.
Original PR description
On website (with “developer” mode enabled), The “Model Pages” menu item is accessible even when there are no created module page records, which is not relevant in most use cases. The code from [1] introduced a way to expose models (both manual and existing models) publicly on the website by creating pages for them, these records are accessible through the model pages' menu (which is currently visible in debug mode only). A first spec aimed to make this menu item visible only when module pages are created for the current website, But since we need to perform async calls for that (to check if some module page records exist), and after further discussion, it was decided to remove it completely.
