* Fix VDom url caching -- use regular requests
* new boilerplate to make writing apps easier
* render-blocking global styles (to prevent render flash)
* bug fixes and new functionality etc.
Going forward for new installations, config and data files will be
stored at the platform default paths, as defined by
[env-paths](https://www.npmjs.com/package/env-paths).
For backwards compatibility, if the `~/.waveterm` or `WAVETERM_HOME`
directory exists and contains valid data, it will be used. If this check
fails, then `WAVETERM_DATA_HOME` and `WAVETERM_CONFIG_HOME` will be
used. If these are not defined, then `XDG_DATA_HOME` and
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` will be used. Finally, if none of these are defined,
the [env-paths](https://www.npmjs.com/package/env-paths) defaults will
be used.
As with the existing app, dev instances will write to `waveterm-dev`
directories, while all others will write to `waveterm`.
This will take the latest artifact from the waveterm-docs repo and embed
it in the app binary. When the help view is launched, it will be served
from our backend. If the embedded copy doesn't exist, such as in
unpackaged versions of the app or in locally packaged versions, it will
use the hosted site instead.
There is a sibling PR in the docs repository to build the embedded
version of the app (strips out some external links, removes Algolia
DocSearch, updates the baseUrl)
https://github.com/wavetermdev/waveterm-docs/pull/46
With this PR, Electron will generate a new authorization key that the Go
backend will look for in any incoming requests. The Electron backend
will inject this header with all requests to the backend to ensure no
additional work is required on the frontend.
This also adds a `fetchutil` abstraction that will use the Electron
`net` module when calls are made from the Electron backend to the Go
backend. When using the `node:fetch` module, Electron can't inject
headers to requests. The Electron `net` module is also faster than the
Node module.
This also breaks out platform functions in emain into their own file so
other emain modules can import them.
Adds electron-builder, which we will use to package and distribute our
application, same as in the existing app.
Replaces explicit port assignments with dynamic ones, which are then
stored into environment variables.
Adds a ~/.w2-dev folder for use when running a dev build.
The build-helper pipeline from the old repo is included here too, but it
is not updated yet so it will fail.
Also removes some redundant utility functions and cleans up some let vs.
const usage.
The packaging can be run using the `package:prod` and `package:dev`
tasks.

This sets us back up to use Vite via the electron-vite package. This
will let us continue to build our testing suite on Vitest and take
advantage of Vite features like Hot Module Reloading, etc.
