Promote apps/sessions to GA​

Apps and sessions are now generally available.

Apps provide a layer on top of workflows which make additional interfaces available for workflow developers to make interactive experiences easier. Sessions expose ports on compute resources to the browser so users can run interactive apps on their computing resources and access them directly via ACTIVATE.
