Netflix would like the ability to use application name displayed in the dashboard as the main page title instead of the URL.

This PR adds a new option useAppNameAsTitle that allows users to specify whether or not they want to use the application name visible in the dashboard as Tbx main tile instead of the URL. The default will remain the URL.
Unlike previous settings added for Netflix this one is also configurable from the UI (Coder Settings page) so not only via settings.json file. This is an option that probably makes sense for more users.

This commit adds a option `useAppNameAsTitle` that allows users
to specify whether or not they want to use the application name
visible in the dashboard as Tbx main tile instead of the URL.
Default is to use the URL.
This is an option that more users would probably like to use.
Adds the http client stubs necessary to download the
application name via the REST API.
Handles both normal case and URI handling
Always read it from the underlying store. The way it is declared right now
we read the value once and cache it.
A restart was needed in order for the title bar to be
updated. With this patch the main page title is updated
as soon as the user leaves the Settings page.
