* in markdown files, use code fences rather than indented blocks.
This is harder to screw up (one of them was off by a space so didn't
render properly) and allows me to add info strings.
* uniformly use "useradd" to create the user and group in all three
places (install-manual.md, script-functions.sh, Dockerfile) rather
than addgroup + adduser. Create a full home dir, which I suspect was
the problem in #67. Don't allow customizing group name; it's always
the same as the user.
* install the sqlite3 package so that the "moonfire-nvr sql" command
works properly.
* remove "setup_db" function, which was out of place. Since the
creation of the "moonfire-nvr init" command, this has to happen
after installation of the binary. install.md gives instructions on
this part anyway so remove it from the script.
* give a proper command to create the db dir. It was creating it
within the current directory, not within /var/lib/moonfire-nvr.
Don't bother creating sample directory; "moonfire-nvr config"
will do this.
* when setting owners on a newly created directory, use a single
"install -d" command rather than "mkdir" + "chown".
* address confusion about whether sample file dirs need to be
precreated. (Only when Moonfire NVR doesn't have write permissions
on the parent.)
* always just install the packaged version of ffmpeg rather than
building our own. This has been usable since Debian/Raspbian 9
Stretch; Debian/Raspbian 10 Buster is out now so there's no excuse
for still running Debian/Raspbian 8 Jessie.
* don't chown the UI directory; it can be owned by root as with
the binary.
* in scripts/install.sh, don't enable/start the service yet. It hasn't
been configured.
This no longer requires installing ffmpeg manually, so there should be
significantly less data to cache (faster runs). The build step itself
should also be faster when the cache is unavailable/stale.
Also sneak in a change from "pkg-config" to "pkgconf" package in the
scripts and travis CI. They didn't match the manual instructions; make
them all consistent. They both seem to work fine, but I gather pkgconf
is the newer thing. Its roadmap is here and notes that distros are
moving toward it.

The Rust portions of the merge are straightforward, but the Javascript
is not. The new-schema branch is based on my hacky prototype UI; the
master branch is based on Dolf's rewrite. I attempted to match the
new-schema changes in Dolf's new structure.
* Dockerfile which allows full build on ubuntu
* No cross-compile yet
* Fixed build scripts bug found with docker
Signed-off-by: Dolf Starreveld <dolf@starreveld.com>
* Install and build script enhancements
* Use functions for all reporting for consistent output
* Update reporting text to be more clear
* Add some additional messages
* Re-check some install prep items also in install script
* Fix a bug where the wrong db directory would be configured to the service
* Satisfy PR requested changes (spelling mostly).
