Description
Andy raised a valid point here.
In some parts of boot, we use the spring.application.name when we need the application name, other parts use a separate property for that. We should consolidate that - this central place can then be used to define a sane default, too, if spring.application.name isn't set.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the discussion in pull request #30251, then search Spring Boot for uses of spring.application.name and the separate properties that represent the application name. Done means those uses are consolidated around one central place, including a sane default when the property is unset.
