filter:taskbar.push client-side hook now requires hooks module

See changeset in Persona: https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-theme-persona/commit/df02630b257738154574563e2b7f278af246de6f

The old code used $(window).trigger('filter:taskbar.push', ...);. This has now been replaced with invocation via hooks module.

This breaking change is only applicable to theme developers, usually those that have forked Persona and copied persona.js.
