Update to manifest v3, redesign UI to allow click-to-archive + tagging, add history view + options.html page for settings

[pirate]

With help from @benmuth and Claude.

Usage:

load the ./redesign folder in Chrome as an "Unpacked Extension" after enabling Dev Mode in `chrome://extensions`.

It should autoreload from source automatically for most basic edits, but it can also be manually refreshed from chrome://extensions.

cc @tjhorner FYI, let me know if you have any questions/comments/concerns, would love to get your input

Hey @benmuth can you open a PR against this redesign branch with your fixes when you get a chance.

[pirate]

@benmuth can you confirm if this is working against both :0.7.3 in Docker (by POST ing to {server_url}/add, and :0.8.5rc51 by POSTing to /api/v1/cli/add?

@benmuth Can you help me do some final bugfixes on this PR. Then I think it's ready to release soon!

• fix esc key hiding popup (pressing Escape when the ArchiveBox popup is visible on the page should hide it, regardless of where the user's input focus is)
• make sure the Sync button on the options.html page works to send each URL to the server one by one
• make sure the Delete button on the options.html page works to delete the selected URLs from the extension's local store only (not delete from the server)
• add a small link to each row on the options.html list to view the saved version on the configured archivebox server (no need for any API lookups, just redirect them to https://demo.archivebox.io/archive/https://example.com/original/url, the server will redirect them to the matching snapshot, e.g. https://demo.archivebox.io/archive/https://bernsteinbear.com/blog/type-inference/)

(Also plz send an invoice for your time)

This extension is going to be reworked at some point to make it work as a desktop app too (I'm testing out Quasar+vite as a new frontend framework).

@pirate Should the 'Sync' button work with older versions of ArchiveBox as well? I can repeat the logic we used in the other redesigned code.

yes, use the same logic / call the same function
