Add a web-based UI

[deanward81]

Currently the "client" portion of AirDrop Anywhere connects to the "server" end that handles the AirDrop protocol with AirDrop-compatible clients. However the client is implemented as a command-line tool and needs to be deployed to each machine that we want to send/receive files from/to.

This can be avoided by implementing a web interface in the server that connects back to itself using SignalR, allowing files to be downloaded when it is notified of them becoming available. Choices for implementation are some form of JS/TS-based SPA (React, Angular, vue.js) or Blazor web assembly.

I'm erring towards Blazor because, well, the build pipeline for the JS bits is horrendous, but moar investigation needed before deciding for sure.

I've been working on trying to add a Blazor based WebUI (just as a challenge to myself) but I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

@dbatey I did dive into Blazor briefly and hit a wall trying to get everything packaged up nicely into a single executable. That was on some early beta bits of net6 so might have been a tooling bug :). Really interested to see how far you get!

Starting from scratch on the UI. Maybe something modern and responsive. 😆 🤣

Either of y'all made any progress on this? 🤓
