Subject: [PATCH] fix(shell): cover edge cases of compact focused app widget
 (#1918)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Fixes two cases:

- some apps (e.g., Zen browser use the "—" character at the end of
  webpage name)
- in compact mode, when app has only appName, and not window name, we
  should display the appName to avoid empty title.
