Description

This would be useful for Looker, which pushes one-namespace per-application. The current app-variants listing is decomposed, and we have to find all the channels for every variant; if we switched to an /applications endpoint it would simplify that code.

Research direction

Start by tracing how the current app-variants listing is assembled and published, then compare its channel and variant data with the requested v2/glean/applications endpoint. Confirm the expected one-namespace-per-application shape for Looker and define completion as an applications listing that removes the need to discover channels across each variant.
