 In [changeset:"35450"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="35450"
 Menus: Prevent display conflicts in the screen options for Menus when a
 post type and taxonomy share the same slug.

 Prior to this change, both taxonomies and post types added meta boxes to
 the Menus UI (which in-turn registered screen options) using the same ID
 formula: `add-{$id}`. This caused a conflict between the two elements,
 resulting in the rendering of a screen option for only the taxonomy or
 post type but not both. Moving to a new meta box ID for post types, `add-
 post-type-{$id}`, removes that conflict.

 Note: This change in meta box IDs for post types effectively resets
 current user settings for the visibility of post types in the Menus UI.

 Fixes #33925.
