45abeb22de overhaul HTTP serving and caching
* use content-hashed paths for static resources (except the top-level
  request), with immutable Cache-Control headers. This should improve
  cache behavior in both directions: avoid preventable HTTP requests and
  cause immediate refresh when needed. I had some staleness when
  browsing with my phone.

* set up the favicons properly while I'm at it (closes #50). I used the
  convenient favicons-webpack-plugin to build everything from a .svg.
  I've hit an error similar to lovell/sharp#1593 at least once though so
  I might change my mind about that part if it continues to be
  problematic.

* use http-serve's new directory traversal code for static file serving.
  This removes the odd behavior where files that weren't present at
  server startup couldn't be served. (I wasn't comfortable switching to
  the content-hashed paths before doing this.) It also means the static
  files can be served compressed. JSON API responses were already served
  compressed, so this closes #25.

* for a given API URL, decide if we want it to be cached or not
  server-side. Stop using jQuery's kludgy cache-defeating _=<timestamp>
  URL parameter. I might start setting etags on some of these things
  and could serve 304 Not Modified responses if it's genuinely
  unmodified.

5727adf3df Settings can now be taken from separate file with local override.
* Various settings in settings-nvr.js module
* settings-nvr-local.js can override settings-nvr.js
* settings-nvr-local is unchecked file
* Both files can be straight maps, or functions returning maps
* webpack env and args available to those functions

315f3594c2 add a basic Javascript UI
The Javascript is pretty amateurish I'm sure but at least it's something to
iterate from. It's already much more pleasant for browsing through videos in
several ways:

* more responsive to load only a day at a time rather than 90+ days
* much easier to see the same time segment on several cameras
* more pleasant to have the videos load as a popup rather than a link
  that blows away your position in an enormous list
* exposes the fancier .mp4 generation options: splitting at lengths
  other than the default, trimming to an arbitrary start and end time,
  including a subtitle track with timestamps.

There's a slight regression in functionality: I didn't match the former
top-level page which showed how much camera used of its disk allocation and
the total duration of video. This is exposed in the JSON API, so it shouldn't
be too hard to add back.
