Add a basic frontend to the web plugin

[tobim]

This PR adds a built-in web front end to the web plugin.

It can be opened at the root of the HTTP server.
For example with this in your vast.yaml:

vast:
  plugins: [ "all" ]
  start:
    print-endpoint: true
    commands:
      - web server

plugins:
  web:
    mode: dev
    bind: 127.0.0.1
    port: 5657

You can point your browser to http://127.0.0.1:5657 to find the app.

Seems like pnpm needs to be installed in the CI environment? https://github.com/tenzir/vast/actions/runs/3265777637/jobs/5368525733#step:7:54

I tried to locally build from this branch but
cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DVAST_PLUGINS=plugins/web fails with

CMake Error at plugins/web/aux/CMakeLists.txt:20 (add_custom_command):
  add_custom_command Wrong syntax.  A TARGET or OUTPUT must be specified.

@dit7ya This is caused by a missing bundled restinio (the error message is pretty terrible tbh), it should be solved by git submodule update --init.

There are two vast.svg files added in this PR. Is this on purpose?

Can you write a story for improving them? That should be easy enough to check ahead of assuming they exist.

Update: Fixed by commit below :-)

When I don't have any record in VAST, I get the following error:

bodyRows.js?v=76b13408:124 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'map')
    at getBodyRows (bodyRows.js?v=76b13408:124:23)

The UI shows the VAST server as not running where it's actually running, just in the CLI vast count returns 0 (try moving you're vast.db folder for example to get a new empty one)

I gets solved after importing a few records. It's so cool to have a webUI, even if it's just status page for now :-)

@netantho Thanks for the feedback. I have pushed commits which should fix them. Since the frontend is at the very basic state right now, a lot of things are yet to be implemented - which should prevent this kind of bugs.

Thanks @dit7ya! I confirm that your fixes for both of the bugs I found and reported :-)

I have figured out some issues in the CI for this PR and fixing them on #2656. I am going to push some of those changes, and also going to probably rebase this on latest master, if there is no objection.

[tobim]

I tested this locally and the static binary package now comes with a nice web ui! 🥳

One extra note because you can't comment on files in GitHub:
This adds lock files for both yarn and pnpm, do we really need both?

[dominiklohmann]

This is ready to ship in my opinion. I'd appreciate a second review from either @lava or @tobim, though, before merging this.

[lava]

From my side this is good to go as well but I went ahead and also merged #2681 into this PR so we atomically have the SBOM changes when we add the frontend code.

[tobim]

This really deserves a changelog entry before it gets merged. @dit7ya do you want me to write one?

[dit7ya]

Yes, that would be great @tobim.

On a sepatate note, macOS CI still seems unhappy 😭.

I think this is an unrelated bug that somehow reached master: #2686 (comment)
EDIT: Dominik already pushed the fix. Thank you!

[dominiklohmann]

I pushed a fix for that @tobim, see comment in that PR.
