Update to Bootstrap 5

[kraih]

Similar to https://github.com/mojolicious/mojo/issues/1975, we need to update the Minion admin UI from Bootstrap 4 to 5.

I was considering cloning the admin plugin for an internal application that I support to eliminate the long polling and add WebSocket functionality for the live updates as well as improving the UI. I may be able to backport some of this into the AdminUI. I'll create a pull request when I get far enough along and I think it's worthwhile.

Some questions. I started looking at this this evening and I think the update to BS 5 won't be a huge effort. I would like to see some additional functionality on the tables for sorting and searching primarily. We use Datatables in most of our monitoring stack, but I would have to add some more dependencies and rework the jobs.html.ep quite a bit.

In our internal app I have a few custom Minion interfaces using this:

and a json view for extended job data.

I've also implemented websockets to do the UI updates instead of the current long polling.

So my questions are:

• Do you just want a 1 to 1 update with the existing UI to BS 5
• Do you like additional functionality (datatables, websockets, etc)
• Do you want updates to other packages in the UI, I thought I saw something on epoch.js somewhere as well

I'm sure I have more questions, but I didn't want to start tearing things down too much without asking.

I would be happy to help maintain a more feature filled frontend; it would save me a lot of time bc I need to build a fuller dashboard for $work.

Though you can always just publish your own admin UI as a separate plugin

Please don't add functionality in this ticket, it is only about the Bootstrap 5 conversion. Any changes or additions would probably result in a rejection of the PR.
