Eliminate redundant title text Has patch posted, needs review N/A Alex Limi

Summary

We don't show the full title bar in the browser anymore (except on a few platforms). When you have multiple pages from the same site open, they can often end up having the same text as well as the same favicon, making them hard to pick out. This is also a problem in Panorama. We'd like to do the same as other browsers do here, and strip the duplicate text in these cases.
