This was a combination of 2 bugs:
* we didn't do deep_merge on config in ruby app, so
that any nested properties set in the javascript app would be
overwritten
* channelPrefix was not properly set for Travis CI Pro
The ENV viarable that is exported in app/config/environment.js is saved as JSON
in <meta> tag in index.html. In order to properly set the settings from the app
we need to get it from there, update the JSON and write it back
