Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Users in various use cases, start GRASS GIS, but the window they receive is blank. They need to go to menu, toolbar or Data tab to see what is in the current mapset in order to decide what is their next step.

Describe the solution you'd like
The Data tab should be moved so it is the first tab from the left and it is the default when the GUI opens.

User can then use the Data tab to add data to Layers tab.

Additional context
The behavior for opening a workspace is outside of scope for this issue. Let's open another one if needed after this is finished.

@mlennert, @landam, @neteler or anyone else, are you fine with this change?

I like this, yes. In that way the user can see the list of maps in the mapset first thing once starting GRASS

Note: users with a lot of maps might experience delay when loading the data (they should still see the gui though), this will need to be addressed in #749.

New GUI Startup automation moved this from To do to Done Jul 2, 2020
