fix: render account name immediately after login (#244)

In the top right corner of the main page there is a dropdown rendering
the username. In the recent versions of Toolbox the dropdown is built
before we initialize the http client and resolve the username.

The fix consists on building the dropdown field with empty data and then
push the username label as soon as the user connected.
