Support configuring urlPropsIgnore via appdef app settings

[Copilot]

urlPropsIgnore could only be set via viewer mount options (IAppProps.urlPropsIgnore), requiring HTML template modification. This adds support for configuring it via an app setting in the loaded Application Definition — the established pattern for avoiding template changes.

Changes

src/containers/app.tsx

• Exported APP_SETTING_URL_PROPS_IGNORE = "urlPropsIgnore" constant for the app setting key
• Exported getEffectiveUrlPropsIgnore(propIgnore, settingsValue) helper that merges the prop value with a comma-separated app settings value
• Added useCustomAppSettings() call in App to subscribe to Redux app settings state
• Mount effect: reads initial URL state using effective ignore list (prop + props.appSettings["urlPropsIgnore"])
• URL update effect: applies effective ignore list (prop + Redux configuredAppSettings["urlPropsIgnore"]) to updateUrl() and getEffectiveUrlPropsIgnore is re-evaluated when appdef settings land in Redux state

test/containers/app.spec.ts (new)

• Unit tests for getEffectiveUrlPropsIgnore covering merging, trimming, empty filtering, and undefined inputs

Usage

In an appdef ViewerSettings (no HTML template change needed):

<Setting name="urlPropsIgnore" value="x,y,scale" />

Appdef-provided values are merged with any urlPropsIgnore prop already specified at mount time, so the two approaches compose rather than conflict.

This section details on the original issue you should resolve

<issue_title>Support setting urlPropsIgnore from app settings from loaded appdef</issue_title>
<issue_description>In addition to fixing #1465 we have now adopted the pattern of using app settings in an appdef as the proper replacement over viewer mount options as the latter requires a potentially-invasive viewer html template modification whereas the former does not.

So the urlPropsIgnore property should also be allowed to be init based on a specific app setting found in the loaded appdef</issue_description>
