Fix issue with home activity started with standard activity type

- Specifically in the case where we have a merged Launcher+Recents activity
  and there is no default home activity set, allow the recents button
  handler to launch the merged home activity (in Overview mode) without
  showing a disambig dialog (by having the component set in the home intent)

Bug: 79878243
Test: Disable swipe up (enable 3 button nav), launch an app, reinstall
      launcher in the background to remove the home stack, tap the recents
      button and ensure we launch home with ACTIVITY_TYPE_HOME.
