Update analytics to take most recent name of course from LMS

We've run into an issue where we've changed the name of a bunch of our courses in Canvas, however those name changes aren't reflected in the analytics. Both the Reporting API and the Analytics webpage show the old name. There aren't two entries in the analytics (e.g. one for the original name, one for the updated one) - the views from the course continue to be labeled under it's old name. I've confirmed with support (91064) that the new course name is indeed being passed from the LMS via the LTI in the context data.
I think it would make the most sense to take the most recent name of the course, rather than the first name seen by Echo.
The example screenshot below shows on the analytics page "PERS AND INTERPERS SKILL PARA-2024 Semester 1", however the course is now called "Personal and Interpersonal Skills Paramedicine - 2024 Semester 1", and the last three months of views appear under the old name.
