Link CyberChef instead of GoogleChrome to taskbar #559

Details

Link CyberChef instead of Google Chrome to taskbar or open CyberChef as default main page in Google Chrome. This requires modifying flare-vm and/or VM-Packages.

  1. Chrome seems to change where they put their user preferences for homepages often enough that I don't think programmatically adjusting the preferences file to set the default homepage is going to be a good option for long term (but we can consider it if need be).

  2. Attempting to set the homepage to a local file (the cyberchef .html file) via chrome://policy did not work. It seems to prohibit the use of local files.

  3. I think merging the fixes for these 2 issues will give me the ground I need to make a good alternative (using a command prompt shortcut):

We need to merge https://github.com/mandiant/flare-vm/issues/559 to close this (I modified the description so that it happens automatically)
