Description

__Proposal:__
When a dashboard is in presentation mode, it is confusing how to exit. Add an ever-present exit button to the top of the dashboard.

__Current behavior:__
Currently, the only way to exit presentation mode is the `esc` key. A notification fires on entering presentation mode to inform the user of this interaction.

Ref: Issue #10772

__Desired behavior:__
- Keep the current interaction and add an ever-present exit button to the top of the dashboard.

__Alternatives considered:__
- Add permanent help text to inform the user of the interaction.
- Add right-click interaction to exit presentation mode.

Research direction

Start by locating the dashboard presentation-mode entry point and the existing Esc-key exit interaction. Add an always-visible exit control at the top while preserving the current keyboard interaction, then verify that entering presentation mode and both exit paths behave as described.
