Rename nextjs #34

It would be nice to have an explicit name to use when referring to the nextjs project. I think the shared components are already fairly clear but referring to NextJS might be ambiguous, especially for new contributors. An example of a place this would be used is CI logs. Maybe something creative?

I think website it still a bit ambiguous, especially if we're talking generally about Thunderstore. You'd probably end up not using the name and calling it something like "the Next.js frontend"

so let's call it nextjs frontend then, eh? 😄

If we need more descriptive names, we can always rename. For now that should be pretty clear what it's referring to

I think if we call it exactly nextjs-frontend this works well and is explicit
