Fix redirect bugs in SaaS (#7721)

# Description of Changes
Fixes various bugs that affected SaaS (and some self-hosted):
- Refreshing on Editor caused the user to be redirected to Processor 
- User was unable to access Processor in SaaS
- Deep link hijacking fixes
- Fix double prefix `/app/app` issue
- Fix going from tool -> editor -> processor -> editor putting you back
into tool
