server-name: Unescape server name in window menu item.

Escaping is necessary to avoid any security risk but we need to unescape those strings in order to show them in the frontend otherwise it will have ugly special characters. We already escape server name in the db and unesacoe it in the left-sidebar. This PR adds the decodeString function in order to unescape strings in the menu items. Fixes: #554.
readme: Add tray/dock integration to features.
