 When changing the site name in Settings -> General, the name displayed in
 the toolbar changes automatically using JavaScript. When changing your
 name in your user profile, the display name choice updates as well
 (#5691).

 Now, I think we should also update the toolbar when changing the display
 name. So, when I change my display name from "John" to "John Doe", the
 toolbar should change from "Howdy, John" to "Howdy, John Doe". Currently,
 this only happens after saving.
