focus project selection on project names instead of path/to/inlang.project to reduce cognitive load #37

Context

It's overwhelming to look at the project selection.

Proposal

Focus the project selection around project names by giving the path less importance by:

  1. Only display the project name in the dropdown selector
  2. Put the main focus in the dropdown selector on the project names, not paths
  3. Remove {name}.inlang files from the path because every path ends with .inlang and {name} is shown at the beginning. There is no additional value in showing it.
