Use more actively maintained persisted state library

[danielcolinjames]

it appears that the library we're using for persisting state (use-persisted-state) isn't being very actively maintained and I've started to run into issues with it in local development. just spent at least an hour trying to figure out this bug: donavon/use-persisted-state#56 and the best solution appears to be wrapping the setState function in a try/catch...

making an issue because I don't want to add more complexity to the PR where I ran into this (#780), but don't want to forget this later

a viable alternative library appears to be this one: https://www.npmjs.com/package/use-local-storage-state

a couple examples of other people switching from use-persisted-state to use-local-storage-state:

• "Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read property 'emit' of null" donavon/use-persisted-state#56 (comment)
• Is this being maintained? donavon/use-persisted-state#36
