feature: PWA compatability for apps #1702

So I've been reading about Progressive Web Apps (PWA) from googles website and I think this would make a great feature to have for the deploy able apps within windmill.

Use case / Value case :

Eliminates having to open a browser and typing a URL to the deployed windmill app.
Able to install on a device via URL or an app store (App store would probably be a private internal app store like Microsoft Intune)

Could be done for sure, not priority but nice to have

Seems like the offline experience can be mostly had by fetching the app at install time. Otherwise https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Progressive_web_apps/Guides/Making_PWAs_installable looks clear enough
