929b38e8ae refactor(web/converse): Refactor first handlers to rouille
This commit starts the refactoring process towards dropping actix (and
tokio, ...). It builds, but at this commit, Converse does *not* work.

I decided to commit to avoid more ridiculous diffs.

Included changes:

* Added dependency on rouille.

* Refactored DbExecutor (formerly actix actor) to simply be a type
  with a few methods. Most actor messages still exist as they are
  being referred to by handlers.

* Started refactoring two of the handlers (and their related renderer
  functions) into Rouille's call scheme.

Important note: Rouille does not have safe session management out of
the box, and it will need to be implemented as this progresses.

3b0b21f8d1 refactor(web/converse): Use crimp instead of reqwest
This simpler, curl-based HTTP client (which I wrote years ago) is a
first step towards cleaning up the dependency mess of converse.

Dependency stats: +4, -28

a0c4b91955 fix(web/converse): Bare minimum changes to build in 2021
This project depends on Tokio, via actix, and both of those are bad
ideas. This wasn't as clear 3 years ago as it is now, but to
demonstrate it the project has amassed issues which required at least
this minimum of changes to be buildable in 2021 (using a modern
rustc).

Yes, this adds dozens of new dependencies again (because of a
top-level update) but don't worry: They will be gone when I'm done
here.

Imports the converse forum software I wrote a few years ago. I want to
clean this up a bit and try using Hotwire with it.
