Configure server to have Lancet BED URL as a top-level option alongside custom #432

I think we'd have to make an entry in DATA_SOURCES with bedFile set to https://public.gi.ucsc.edu/~anovak/vg-data/lancet_2023-11-07/index.bed and the other fields probably filled in right fore the first example.

We might need a magic/null file name for tracks and logic around getPathNames in HeaderForm to not try and get path names for it.

We could tack on to this using null filenames in the shell scripts that generate tracks.json files for pre-made regions.

We also want to make sure that the track picker does something sensible when the filenames are null, if we start allowing that in custom mode and generating tracks.json files that use it.
