remove the 'localhost' subdomains for universal browser resolution #263

Description

Problem description

The following subdomain format that uses localhost in the name (e.g., scan.localhost) is incompatible with:

  • Safari
  • Java backends
    The name resolution doesn't work.

A workaround exists where a developer can edit their /etc/hosts file to add an entry like:
127.0.0.1 scan.localhost

However, with a security conscious organization, the developer may not be able to do that. It also is a pain because new QS users are mystified why the application doesn't work which is a bad first experience.
