Configure list of force-installed Web Apps

Setting the policy specifies a list of web apps that install silently, without user interaction, and which users can't uninstall or turn off.

Each list item of the policy is an object with a mandatory member:
url (the URL of the web app to install)

and 3 optional members:
- default_launch_container
(for how the web app opens—a new tab is the default)

- create_desktop_shortcut
(True if you want to create Linux and
Microsoft® Windows® desktop shortcuts).

- fallback_app_name
(Starting with Google Chrome version 90,
allows you to override the app name if it is not a
Progressive Web App (PWA), or the app name that is temporarily
installed if it is a PWA but authentication is required before the
installation can be completed.)

See PinnedLauncherApps for pinning apps to the Google Chrome OS shelf.
See https://cloud.google.com/docs/chrome-enterprise/policies/?policy=WebAppInstallForceList for more information about schema and formatting.

Example value:

[
{
"url": "https://www.google.com/maps",
