Tab-session-manager: Save state of "category filter" selector dropdown

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This is perhaps a small issue, but a fix would make using TSM more seamless (for me, anyway) and it seems like the necessary change might be easy and low-impact.

I have several "user defined" sessions set up to open in separate browser windows. I use these to keep groups of related tasks/sites neatly organized. I generally open each of the user defined sessions every day. To do this, I click on the TSM icon to display the session-chooser pane, then select "User Saved" from the "category filter" dropdown (the one at the top of the TSM pane), then select one of my "user defined" sessions to restore.

Describe the solution you'd like
Rather than having the "category filter" dropdown default to "All," have it select the most recently used option. That is, if I select "User Saved," the next time I open the TSM pane it opens to the "User Saved" list instead of "All." This allows me to pick my predefined session with a single click. Those who prefer the current functionality can just leave the "category filter" set on "All."

As a side note, it seems like TSM behaved as I'm describing for a while (that is, remembering which "category filter" I had last selected). Buy my memory may be faulty...

Describe alternatives you've considered
The alternative is easy and works fine -- just taking the extra step to select "User Saved" from the dropdown. This change would just be a small quality-of-life improvement.
