* also add `uv.lock` to gitignore
* remove `package.json` from gitignore, because hatchling bases its
  default list of ignore/include files on the VCS ignore files

* Pipfile isn't taken into account when installing Python packages via
  `pip install`, so the Flask-Session-Captcha pin wasn't taken into
  account in our deployment

* separate the webpack build config from the frontend assets, because
  keeping them together caused some unexpected behaviour (e.g. copying
  over directories in unexpected places)
* move the background images (*.webp) from the statics to the assets, in
  order to get rid of this incomprehensible alias in webpack.py and make
  it clearer how and why the frontend build works
* add some comments explaining behaviour that is not immediately clear
