Dev tools window title in windows start bar is always the same

Reported by zac.spit...@gmail.com, Jun 6 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/59.0.3071.86 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. open several instances of dev tools on windows

What is the expected behavior?
Users should be able to differentiate between the Dev Tools instances from the start bar title

What went wrong?
Every window is simply titled "Developer Tools = h..."

it's very confusing

Did this work before? N/A

Could document location hash also be included in the title?

Simplify title of DevTools window

By shortening "Developer Tools" to "DevTools", we make it easier for a
user to distinguish multiple instances in the Windows task bar, and
better align to DevTools branding.

Fixed in 67.0.3388.0; the schemes "http" and "https" are stripped from the URL and "Developer Tools" becomes "DevTools"
