isso.dispatch now dispatches multiple sites based on relative URLs

The previous approach using a custom X-Custom header did work for the
client-side, but not for activation and deletion links. Now, you need
to add a `name = foo` option to the general section. `isso.dispatch`
then binds this configuration to /foo and can distinguish all API
calls without a special HTTP header.
