Mihai Parparita 78b90c3685 cmd/tsconnect: stop writing build artifacts into src/
We can't write to src/ when tsconnect is used a dependency in another
repo (see also b763a12331). We therefore
need to switch from writing to src/ to using esbuild plugins to handle
the requests for wasm_exec.js (the Go JS runtime for Wasm) and the
Wasm build of the Go module.

This has the benefit of allowing Go/Wasm changes to be picked up without
restarting the server when in dev mode (Go compilation is fast enough
that we can do this on every request, CSS compilation continues to be
the long pole).

Fixes #5382

tsconnect

The tsconnect command builds and serves the static site that is generated for the Tailscale Connect JS/WASM client.

Development

To start the development server:

./tool/go run ./cmd/tsconnect dev

The site is served at http://localhost:9090/. JavaScript and CSS changes can be picked up with a browser reload. Go changes (including to the wasm package) require the server to be stopped and restarted. In development mode the state the Tailscale client is stored in sessionStorage and will thus survive page reloads (but not the tab being closed).

Deployment

To build the static assets necessary for serving, run:

./tool/go run ./cmd/tsconnect build

To serve them, run:

./tool/go run ./cmd/tsconnect serve

By default the build output is placed in the dist/ directory and embedded in the binary, but this can be controlled by the -distdir flag. The -addr flag controls the interface and port that the serve listens on.
