Description

We should add a list of connected applications in the about dialog (or somewhere else). This enables applications to register themselves to show their version number and a support url. See https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing-inotify/issues/65 for a use case.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the about dialog implementation in the syncthing codebase, likely in the GUI package. Find the current UI components and understand how to add a list of connected applications with version and support URL. Refer to the linked issue for the use case.
