Packaging buildbot-www

[Pierre Tardy]

Sorry I overlooked this thread.

Actually, buildbot-www is not even a web server, it is just the web
front-end. It only contains the index.html, styles and scripts. The
buildbot package contain the web server.

It has a few js dependencies, that are indeed included in the release
tarballs and wheels. No need to refetch or rebuild them if you build
from tarballs.

With the guanlecoja version, the js deps are fetched using bower, and
we gather the list of deps, and their metadata into a json file, so
that we can acknowledge them in the UI, as most of the licenses are
suggesting us.
In the webpack version we do not have this acknowledgement anymore in
the UI, as it is harder to actually extract the metadata.

Regards
Pierre
