Name the instance in the tab and the brand link

Name the instance in the tab and the brand link instance_name reached the home heading only, so a renamed instance still put "Vole" in the one place a reader always looks and in the brand link's accessible name. Put the name on the shared page data and read it in the chrome. An instance that never set one still says Vole, and the separator never renders on its own. Prose about the software, such as the status page's restart instruction, keeps the product name: it names the program, not the organisation's forge.
