This is an attempt to help with #61 by storing the creature state in the querystring.
However, a crucial issue with this implementation as it stands is that it stores the random number seed used to generate the creature. This is great for representing the state in a compact form, but it's also likely to break easily as the vocabulary and randomization algorithm changes.
So, in the future, we might want to represent the creature state by enumerating the actual structure of the creature, which is likely to be a bit more future-proof. (It also makes it possible for us to add features in the future that allow users to tweak the randomly-generated creature.)
But for now at least, this will allow users to use the back and forward buttons in their browser to navigate between creatures, so that if they click randomize and skip past something that looked cool, it's easy to go back and visit it.
Fixes#191.
Currently the implementation is fairly naive, in that a really large value for `creature_frequency_multiplier` will not be handled terribly efficiently, but we can optimize later if needed.
This splits up our `styles.css` file into multiple CSS files that sit alongside the TSX files that use their classes. All "generic" CSS that isn't used by any one particular component, such as our `thingy` class, is currently being put into `page.css`.
The CSS files are imported via `import` statements in their associated TSX files. As such, this fixes#164.
This also starts formatting our CSS using Prettier.
It also moves some of our `<head>` tags back into `index.html`, reverting a tiny bit of #205, to ensure that some of the metadata can be recognized by browsers, and start loading asynchronously, independently of the page's JavaScript (I see no reason why any of those elements need to change dynamically based on the app's state, so there don't seem to be any downsides to this).
This does the following:
* Adds logo
* Adds favicon
* Creates css directory in dist
* Creates img directory in dist
* Updates /lib/page.tsx to use helmet to incporate the logo, favicon and style.css file
* adds a new file .gitattributes to make Windows use Linux line endings per https://prettier.io/docs/en/options.html

This adds a new attachment point type called `wildcard` (colored `#000000` in the SVGs) which, as the name suggests, can contain _any_ kind of symbol.
Fixes#187.
This minimally fixes#143 by adding optional hills to the waves page (they default to being disabled but can be enabled via a checkbox). It also adds haze to the waves, so that they are blended with the color of the sky as they recede into the distance.
