User Story

As a non signed-in FF user, I can set a friendly name so that URL clickers see my name when they are in conversations with me.

Rough UX/Impl:

* Just above the "Available" status in the panel, add a new field for the user's friendly name.
* The friendly name is "Guest" by default.
* When the name is clicked, replace it by a text box.
* Let the user enter a new name
* Save the new name in a preference
* Any existing url in the call url box should have a PUT /call-url/{token} done with it, with the friendly name as the "issuer".
* For all future urls, when the POST /call-url/ is made to get a call url, include the friendly name as the "issuer" (or use "Guest" if not set.

If no friendly name is manually set, "Guest is used by default.
If the user clicks on the name he can set to whatever he wants
If the browser is closed and opened again, the name persists.

Setting this aside for now to focus on visual uplift.  <https://github.com/dmose/gecko-dev/compare/dmose:fx-team...friendly-name-bug-1015938?expand=1> has the WIP branch.  This is partly done, but in a messy state.  Whether or not the reset.css here should stay may depend on whether this lands before or after the first chunk of the conversation visual uplift.  I have a bunch of semi-coherent notes about what's left to do that I can put in an etherpad if someone other than me wants to pick this up.
