Convert backend to TS

Pretty straightforward, but we should inherit the tsconfig from root.

With a monorepo we should be inheriting from the base tsconfig.json file in the project, then extending that where needed.

https://github.com/Portaler-Zone/portaler-core/blob/main/packages/frontend/tsconfig.json

This actually just started as:

{
  "extends": "../../tsconfig.json",
}

But when I ran it for the first time I think CRA or maybe TS gave some kind of message I didn't quite catch before it went away and it added the rest of the file.

{
  "extends": "../../tsconfig.json",
  "compilerOptions": {},
  "include": [
    "src"
  ]
}

This might mean we need to move some of the JSX or Node specific configs into the individual packages, I've never done a Node TS repo before, but that should be easy enough.

I get "unknown compiler option" for "extends".

Ok, I'll take a look at this after work. I actually ran into the same issue but I thought I fixed it. I forget exactly what it was, but it was something stupid.

So, the server wasn't actually working when trying to hook it into discord. I put it back to the original way and just converted that to TS, but also so that @mmcken3 can learn better JS/TS practices too.
