Get started with Bootstrap 5 upgrade

[sayravai]

Description

What?

Investigating what's needed for moving A-plus from Bootstrap 3 to 5. This PR is mostly just a work-in-progress-dump of where I got before heading for holidays.

Major changes done/required:

• Glyphicons are no longer supported, so tried using the Bootstrap icon font, currently via CDN. Many of the Glyphicons are not yet mapped to BS icon names.
• The django-bootstrap-form library is BS3 only and apparently dead, so it has been replaced with django-bootstrap5. Haven't had time to play with this yet.
• The All results page uses DataTables (https://datatables.net), which currently uses BS3-based styling, and needs to be updated.
• The All results page is using bootstrap-multiselect jQuery plugin (https://github.com/davidstutz/bootstrap-multiselect), which may or may not work with BS5. An alternative may need to be found/implemented.
• There is a bunch of old css definitions in main.scss just to get the thing compiled. These are mostly related to breakpoints, which need to be carefully re-checked anyway.

The most apparent issues so far:

• Navbar is constructed differently in BS5, and couldn't yet figure out how to implement the kind of mobile menu there is in the current BS3-based version. The mobile menu toggle does not show up at all. Also opening the menus cause the navbar to expand.
• Have not yet figured out why the "sticky-bottom" in bottom navbar does not work (see the Form a group page, screenshot below, for an example). For some reason, margin-top: auto always results in 0px, even though the parent element's height extends to the full page.

Why?

Bootstrap 3 is no longer supported.

How?

You may need to run this script manually if the BS5 assets do not get automatically compiled: ./dev_assets_run_npm.sh bootstrap5 install

Before making changes to scss files, run this to get the css files compiled automatically: ./dev_assets_watch_sass.sh
