Bug Description

IArchive, specially PPAs, should allow users to set a displayname, which will be used as a reference to that context in the web UI.

This way we expect to reduce the user-pressure for modifying the PPA 'name' and continue to use 'name' for the PPA page and repository URL and for signing-key UID.

The PPA displayname should use inline-edit mechanism for making it as easy as possible for users to edit it.

The title for named-ppas defined in bug #334883 is unambiguous enough to continue to be used as the signing-key UID.

Let's start by renaming the current 'title' implementation to 'displayname', then submit a DB patch creating Archive.title column and adjusting Archive activation, edit and admin forms to work with it.

Plans changed again and we decided to create Archive.displayname as well in the DB. Corresponding changes landed in db-devel (staging) r7903
