Subject: [PATCH] fix(profile): refresh from the server every time the page
 opens
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

SessionStore only ever populated from auth.info once per app launch
— a name (or avatar) changed elsewhere, like Outline's web app, never
reached it until a full quit-and-relaunch. Profile now refetches via
currentUser() every time it's opened and applies the result, same as
any live edit made from this app already does. Fails silently offline,
same as everything else that needs a live read.
