Scott revised the directory path some time ago, the correct path the release build was not updated until this change.

44b1ac965d bump minimum Rust to 1.53
1c9a556 started depending on arrays implementing IntoIterator. I keep
forgetting that 1.52 doesn't support this. There's really no compelling
reason to keep building on 1.52, so don't.

30cea5cfcb several documentation improvements
*   prefix docker/nvr commands with sudo (fixes #142).
    I was just going to link to the docker documentation on setting
    up non-root access, but that's kind of a personal preference.
    I included a `<details>` about it instead and made all the commands
    work with sudo.

*   take better advantage of github markdown's code block syntax
    highlighting. Use "console" for shell session stuff, put the
    "nvr" wrapper script in its own block with "bash".

*   add some comments to nvr wrapper script where people need to
    make changes and/or will be confused.

*   add a `<details>` that talks about shutting down and restarting
    the session around `nvr config` (see #151). Still not user-friendly
    but at least it's better documented now.

826b81a95c further refine UI install cmd (#150)
* add the command to create `/usr/local/lib/moonfire-nvr`, necessary
  the first time
* have the files owned by root and use world-readable permissions, even
  if the building user has a restrictive umask set

7518b4c865 correctly describe installation in build guide
There were several incorrect/out-of-date paths here, and it didn't
have example commands to install the server or UI.

Fixes #150

6270cc0ee4 adjust minimum SQLite version
"without rowid" was introduced in 3.8.2, not 3.14.0. The latter
was just "without rowid" virtual tables, a more obscure feature.

164c8c5b21 clarify support for node 12 and 14
* run node 12, 14, and 16 (next to be supported) on CI. This will catch
  node version-specific problems like that solved in dad9bdc.
* mention 12 and 14 in build instructions and link to instructions for
  installing that version.
* follow this in Dockerfile, installing version 14. This addresses
  a "Cannot find module 'worker_threads'" error introduced in
  39a63e0, which (inadvisedly) upgraded gzipper 4->5 in addition to
  the material-ui upgrade.
* use utf-8 encoding rather than ascii in live part parser. Those
  builds apparently don't support ascii. iThey must use "small-icu" or
  have ICU disabled, as described here:
  https://nodejs.org/api/util.html#util_encodings_supported_when_node_js_is_built_with_the_small_icu_option

2936c138c5 various doc improvements
I bumped the minimum Rust version because I'm taking advantage of
the rustdoc linking added in Rust 1.48:

44039889c5 switch from yarn to npm
This eases build setup. Where Yarn requires a separate package
repository, npm is available in the standard one.

yarn's package repository signature was recently expired, and apparently
will expire again in a year. Avoid dealing with that.

Fixes #110.

dd66c7b0dd restructure into "server" and "ui" subdirs
Besides being more clear about what belongs to which, this helps with
docker caching. The server and ui parts are only rebuilt when their
respective subdirectories change.

Extend this a bit further by making the webpack build not depend on
the target architecture. And adding cache dirs so parts of the server
and ui build process can be reused when layer-wide caching fails.

c140296da2 fix dependencies in CI
Running "apt-get install" without a preceding "apt-get update" has
started failing on GitHub Actions, eg:

https://github.com/scottlamb/moonfire-nvr/runs/1750609817

I believe the problem is that older packages have been removed from
the mirror, and the update will fix this, as described here:

https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/issues/675#issuecomment-671057659

Also, I was using ncurses version 5 packages, when I should be using the
unversioned default. Same in the build guide.

things.
