all: do not commit generated JS/CSS to source control (#148)

Closes #125
Closes #40

Among other things, this moves all of the asset generation to run within
the context of an npm script. Developer documentation stubs have been
added so that people can get started more easily.

The top-level Dockerfile (which is no longer used in production) has
been removed as its presence has been causing confusion. This changeset
will break it anyways.

These changes will make for less "repo churn" as the static assets are
built and rebuilt, at the cost of making the build step more complicated
for downstream packagers. If this becomes a burden, we can explore
making a "release tarball" that contains pre-massaged outputs.

title: Code quality guidelines
---
When submitting code to Anubis, please take the time to consider the fact that this project is security software. If things go bad, bots can pummel sites into oblivion. This is not ideal for uptime.
As such, code reviews will be a bit more strict than you have seen in other projects. This is not people trying to be mean, this is a side effect of taking the problem seriously.
When making code changes, try to do the following:
- If you're submitting a bugfix, add a test case for it
- If you're changing the JavaScript, make sure the integration tests pass (`npm run test:integration`)
## Commit messages
Anubis follows the Go project's conventions for commit messages. In general, an ideal commit message should read like this:
```text
path/to/folder: brief description of the change
If the change is subtle, has implementation consequences, or is otherwise
not entirely self-describing: take the time to spell out why. If things
are very subtle, please also amend the documentation accordingly
```
The subject of a commit message should be the second half of the sentence "This commit changes the Anubis project to:". Here's a few examples:
- `disable DroneBL by default`
- `port the challenge to WebAssembly`
The extended commit message is also your place to give rationale for a new feature. When maintainers are reviewing your code, they will use this to figure out if the burden from feature maintainership is worth the merge.

title: Local development
---
:::note
TL;DR: `npm ci && npm run dev`
:::
Anubis requires the following tools to be installed to do local development:
- [Go](https://go.dev) - the programming language that Anubis is written in
- [esbuild](https://esbuild.github.io/) - the JavaScript bundler Anubis uses for its production JS assets
- [Node.JS & NPM](https://nodejs.org/en) - manages some build dependencies
- `gzip` - compresses production JS (part of coreutils)
- `zstd` - compresses production JS
- `brotli` - compresses production JS
If you have [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) installed, you can install all the dependencies with one command:
```text
brew bundle
```
If you don't, you may need to figure out equivalents to the packages in Homebrew.
## Running Anubis locally
```text
npm run dev
```
Or to do it manually:
- Run `npm run assets` every time you change the CSS/JavaScript
- `go run ./cmd/anubis` with any CLI flags you want
## Building JS/CSS assets
```text
npm run assets
```
If you change the build process, make sure to update `build.sh` accordingly.
## Production-ready builds
```text
npm run container
```
This builds a prod-ready container image with [ko](https://ko.build). If you want to change where the container image is pushed, you need to use environment variables:
```text
DOCKER_REPO=registry.host/org/repo DOCKER_METADATA_OUTPUT_TAGS=registry.host/org/repo:latest npm run container
```

title: Signed commits
---
Anubis requires developers to sign their commits. This is done so that we can have a better chain of custody from contribution to owner. For more information about commit signing, [read here](https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/what-is-commit-signing-in-git/).
We do not require GPG. SSH signed commits are fine. For an overview on how to set up commit signing with your SSH key, [read here](https://dev.to/ccoveille/git-the-complete-guide-to-sign-your-commits-with-an-ssh-key-35bg).
