Menu data mock

`MenuSettings` contains mock data for the application menu. Its `CompareUrl()` method checks the current URL context and returns a boolean that menu code can use when determining navigation state.

## Methods

| Method | Signature | Returns |
|---|---|---|
| `CompareUrl` | `CompareUrl(url: string, val: string)` | `boolean` |

## Properties

| Property | Type |
|---|---|
| `root` | `any` |

  MenuSettings[MenuSettings] --> MenuData[Mock menu data]
  MenuSettings --> CompareUrl[CompareUrl()]
  CompareUrl --> Result[boolean URL match result]
  Result --> AppMenu[Application menu]
```

## Usage

```ts
import { MenuSettings } from './menu.settings';

const menuSettings = new MenuSettings();

const matchesCurrentUrl = menuSettings.CompareUrl();

if (matchesCurrentUrl) {
  // Apply the matching menu state.
}
```

## AI Coding Instructions

- Keep menu mock data and URL comparison behavior within `MenuSettings`.
- Treat `CompareUrl()` as a boolean check when wiring menu selection or visibility logic.
- Update dependent menu components when changing the shape of menu data.
- Avoid duplicating URL matching logic in application menu components.
