Original title: edit form always displays in non-javascript browsers, like elinks

Reported by djp. The web ui should be usable, at least for browsing, in text-mode browsers and when javascript is disabled or not available.

The add/edit/import forms are normally hidden until needed by CSS, which the text browsers don't support. I've moved them below the main content as a slight improvement. I don't think it can be hidden completely except by moving it to a separate page, which means slower editing for normal users.

Update: I believe that the above is no longer an issue (since the edit form was disabled), and that hledger-web ui is usable in read-only mode with javascript disabled. It's still not possible to add entries without javascript, and we'd like to make that possible. I'll repurpose this issue for that.
