The columns menu above tables showed an unnamed checkbox for every action column. These columns (Pause, Needs review, Trigger and Delete on the Dags list, and the actions column on Dag Runs, Task Instances, Connections, Variables, XCom and the state store pages) have an empty header, so the menu had no name to show. Unchecking one hid the column without telling the user what was hidden.

This follows what #51593 did for the select column and #51264 for the favorite column, and sets enableHiding: false on these columns so they no longer appear in the menu.

A column hidden through one of those unnamed checkboxes stays hidden in local storage, and with no menu entry left it could never be shown again. The table now ignores a stored hidden state for columns that cannot be hidden, so those columns come back for users who already hid them.
