With this PR, Electron will generate a new authorization key that the Go
backend will look for in any incoming requests. The Electron backend
will inject this header with all requests to the backend to ensure no
additional work is required on the frontend.
This also adds a `fetchutil` abstraction that will use the Electron
`net` module when calls are made from the Electron backend to the Go
backend. When using the `node:fetch` module, Electron can't inject
headers to requests. The Electron `net` module is also faster than the
Node module.
This also breaks out platform functions in emain into their own file so
other emain modules can import them.
Adds electron-builder, which we will use to package and distribute our
application, same as in the existing app.
Replaces explicit port assignments with dynamic ones, which are then
stored into environment variables.
Adds a ~/.w2-dev folder for use when running a dev build.
The build-helper pipeline from the old repo is included here too, but it
is not updated yet so it will fail.
Also removes some redundant utility functions and cleans up some let vs.
const usage.
The packaging can be run using the `package:prod` and `package:dev`
tasks.

This sets us back up to use Vite via the electron-vite package. This
will let us continue to build our testing suite on Vitest and take
advantage of Vite features like Hot Module Reloading, etc.
