Remember collapsed/expanded state of block panes (Eg image styles is always expanded).

What problem does this address?

Block panes like the Image block Styles pane, are always expanded, taking up precious screen real estate. Screenshot:

I never use the styles options, so I'd prefer the styles pane to remain collapsed.

What is your proposed solution?

1. Make Gutenberg remember if a pane is being collapsed, or
2. make panes collapsed by default, or
3. make visible panes optional (an option to hide styles, advanced etc entirely)

I'd prefer option 1. If I have collapsed a pane for a cleaner editor, it should remain collapsed until I actively expand it again.
