Users with access to multiple companies can now see their current company directly in the top bar and switch to another allowed company from a dropdown. This makes working across companies faster and reduces the need to navigate through settings or menus.

If the user has multicompany rights and more than one allowed
companies, the full company name is displayed in the  topbar. When you
click on it, there is a dropdown with the name of the other companies.

Inventory settings now hide expiration date options unless lot or serial number tracking is enabled. This reduces confusion by only showing expiration-related choices when they can actually be used, and clarifies wording around expiration dates for serial numbers.

This fix ensures the web interface does not get stuck waiting indefinitely if a background request for the company menu fails. Users can continue using the systray and interface instead of experiencing a stalled startup state.

If the RPC fails, the deferred is never resolved nor rejected,
so the deferred given by willStart will stay in a 'pending' state

As the deferred is expected to be resolved or rejected to launch the
systray to continue, we have to catch this case too.
