When we upgraded from Qt 5.15 to Qt 6, the default profile seemed to have changed from being stored on disk to off-the-record: - https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwebengineprofile.html#defaultProfile - https://doc.qt.io/qt-6.5/qwebengineprofile.html#defaultProfile This made the third party widgets (MoonPay, Pocket, ...) lose their cookies/localstorage upon app restart. This commit switches our profile to be stored on disk once more. We choose a new storage name "BitBoxApp" (not "Default" which was used previously) to not run into potential conflicts or very old user sessions that get unexpectedly resumed.

In Qt 5 this was on by default, but since our upgrade to Qt 6 this broke, as in Qt 6 one has to explicitly set the persistent storage path.
