I realize the storage name needs to change in order for us to get the new
default value of "system" going forward.

However I think WebInspector.settings.layoutDirection is way better than
WebInspector.settings.layoutDirectionOverride. I suggest we keep that.

This brings to light that in the future we should name settings that are in
experimental stages with a storage name "...-experimental" so that when we turn
it on by default and rename it we can get the better name when it graduates!
