  1. webui: Handle XAUTHORITY and XDG_RUNTIME_DIR 

    The titlebar with "Mozilla Firefox" has been fixed but there
are some more bits that can be cleaned up.

This commit achieves that by:

1. Make sure more of the environment is bubbled through anaconda to
   the webui launcher. In particular, we need XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, but
   this commit brings it all through, so firefox runs in an environment
   as close to getting run directly by the live user as possible.
2. Two exceptions are XAUTHORITY and XDG_RUNTIME_DIR which need to
   remain unset until we can run firefox as a normal user instead of root.
