deploySite does not work for non-RMarkdown sites

[omar-rs]

deploySite() looks specifically for static files and directories generated with rmarkdown, so it will not work for sites generated by Quarto because the static artifacts are slightly different.

Looks like this should be a straightforward fix to a regex: https://github.com/rstudio/rsconnect/blob/envvars/R/deploySite.R#L80

And possibly here too:

rsconnect/R/deploySite.R

Line 53 in 5533a94

siteGenerator <- rmarkdown::site_generator(siteDir)

Ah yeah, we basically need something to parallel rmarkdown::site_generator() that extracts the equivalent info from the quarto metadata.

[omar-rs]

Maybe the quarto R package might be able to provide this info via quarto::quarto_inspect()

Ah yes, the first task is to figure out who should own this code.

I talked with @jjallaire about this, and I think long term goal is to have this code live in rsconnect.
