Browser GUI

It would be nice to get rid of our old and dusty Qt GUI and replace it with a browser-based GUI.

This could work: SSR with WebSocket interface + HTML(5) page connecting to it

The initial HTML page (+CSS, +JS) could also be served by the SSR.

The WebSocket interface already exists, see https://github.com/SoundScapeRenderer/ssr/pull/131

A prototype for a browser-based interface exists since https://github.com/SoundScapeRenderer/ssr/pull/142, see the folder browser-gui. This prototype is built using http://threejs.org/.
