mac: hard-load the page so a relaunch never runs stale web code (#88)

WKWebView's subresource cache can hang on to /static/*.js past the
server's no-cache, so a relaunched app could keep running old chat.js
against a redeployed server. Load with reloadIgnoringLocalAndRemoteCacheData
(a browser shift-reload); the assets are small.
