After setup renamed the box, the TV could show Chromium's "profile appears to be in use by another Chromium process on another computer" error. The killed Chromium left its SingletonLock behind with the old hostname, and the new one refused to take it over.

boxd profile prep now removes SingletonLock/Socket/Cookie before every start (it runs right before the box's only Chromium starts). Tests, ADR 0006 and the changelog are updated.
