Description

Developer quality of life: Sometimes it's helpful to be able to test out client code in sd-app by allowing network access, cloning the client repo, and running a branch of the client against a provisioned system. This will be sped up if we have a make target that installs everything that's needed (git, make, rust toolchain, libssl-dev, pkg-config, python3-dev, python3-poetry, off the top of my head but there may be more) so that devs can get going quickly.

How will this impact SecureDrop users?

As a developer I want to be able to quickly boostrap a temporary environment (sd-app)

I have most of this in https://github.com/cfm/dotfiles/blob/af3750fb5c262602de340a50532d1a5639dd6266/Makefile#L114-L134 and would be happy to slim it down to just the required set.
