Add module declarations for svg and png ressources

[ziegenberg]

Removes a bunch of ts-expect-error:

// @ts-expect-error TS(2307): Cannot find module '../img/*.svg' or
// @ts-expect-error TS(2307): Cannot find module '../../img/*.png' or

@Arnei, would you consider this a valid approach?

[Arnei]

Absolutely no expert on this, but if our goal is to get rid of @ts-expect-error messages, I would consider this a valid solution.

Apart from getting typescript to shut up, this does not add anything of value I believe. We're basically declaring pngs as any and svgs as string which is ... technically correct I suppose, but not actually all that useful? If we want good typing we should probably take a look at libraries like svgr. But that again begs the question if really need all that jazz. Certainly not if just want typescript to stop complaining.

And you can probably shorten the module declarations down to just declare module "*.png";? Not sure.

While switching to Vite, I had to remove the ts-expect-error annotation. Else, tsc was complaining.

I rebased and fixed the merge conflicts.

@Arnei I also shortened the module declarations as suggested.

Use docker or podman to test this pull request locally.

Run test server using develop.opencast.org as backend:

podman run --rm -it -p 127.0.0.1:3000:3000 ghcr.io/opencast/opencast-admin-interface:pr-458

Specify a different backend like stable.opencast.org:

podman run --rm -it -p 127.0.0.1:3000:3000 -e PROXY_TARGET=https://stable.opencast.org ghcr.io/opencast/opencast-admin-interface:pr-458

It may take a few seconds for the interface to spin up.
It will then be available at http://127.0.0.1:3000.
For more options you can pass on to the proxy, take a look at the README.md.

Actually, do we still need this? Or did this become unnecessary with the introduction of vite and stuff?

[ziegenberg]

@Arnei We still have messages like Cannot find module '../../img/*.png' or and they are gone with this patch.

[geichelberger]

svgs should be handled by svgr

[ziegenberg]

So, then let's close this.
