Use list FMA endpoint in generate-gitops to match FMAs by ID (#42483)
<!-- Add the related story/sub-task/bug number, like Resolves #123, or
remove if NA -->
**Related issue:** Resolves #39842
Replaces the call to
`maintained_apps.FetchAppsList(context.Background())` which downloads
the apps.json list from github to the list Fleet-maintained apps
endpoint. This is so we can match apps by their Fleet-maintained app ID
instead of by name which can cause problems when a Windows FMA is
associated to a title with the wrong name (e.g. title is `7-Zip 23.01`
instead of the current FMA's name `7-Zip 25.01`).

- Fixed a bug where `fleetctl generate-gitops` failed if a Fleet-maintained app was associated to a software title with a different name (e.g. names with different versions).
