sessionStorage is tab-local, so new browser tabs opened from manageiq now immediately log off (since we started logging off on API authentication failures - #2715)
To fix this, moving
miq_token
tolocalStorage
which is persistent.(Note: this also means the token won't be forgotten on closing the tab, and may still be used until it expires on the backend, there should be no change in visibility though.)
