fix(dashboard): materialise an immutable leaf whose ancestor is gone

overlayImmutable stopped walking as soon as the submitted body had
nothing at a path segment, so a YAML edit that dropped a whole parent
object also dropped the immutable leaf under it -- reachable through
foundationdb storage.storageClass and kafka kafka.storageClass. Create
the missing ancestor when the persisted spec has one, and turn the
pinned FIXME test into a test of the fixed behaviour.

Fixes #3102
