Server device info should be set by the coordinator, not the server itself #927

Gregor and I discussed this today. It's a nontrivial task. Here are my notes from the call.

When adding a server peer, core should:

PUT to the /projects endpoint
Receive the device ID and server name from the response
Set the device info for the server
- We'd need to implement this
- Problem: device info docId is config core ID, not deviceId. MemberApi.prototype.getById could query both?
Then there's no need for an initial sync with the server
