Downgrade Webpack from 5.28.0 to 5.26.3. Breakage was introduced at
5.27.0. It's unclear if this is a regression of issue 12742 in Webpack
or if we're doing something else wrong.

Allow viewing Flash posts with the Ruffle emulator.
Known issues:
* Many flash files aren't fully supported.
* In development it sometimes spazzes out and starts triggering random
keyboard shortcuts when you press any key. This doesn't happen with
the browser extension.
* We have to put the .wasm file in the public/packs/js directory because
Ruffle is hardcoded to search for it there.
* If you're running Nginx, you need to make sure you're serving the
right MIME type for .wasm files or it won't work.
* We're using Some Random Guy's unofficial NPM package for Ruffle, since the
Ruffle project doesn't publish an official package themselves. We
should build our own package.

Regression caused by the upgrade to Webpacker 6.0 in 90cd3293e. This
caused various Javascript errors in old versions of Chrome, which
somehow resulted in the keyboard shortcut for visiting the next page
being triggered when you pressed any key.
Specifically, the mobx library (used by the TagCounter component) called
`Object.entries`, which isn't available in Chrome 49, and for some
unknown reason this triggered the buggy shortcut behavior.
`Object.entries` is supposed to be automatically polyfilled by Babel to
support old browsers, but something changed in Webpacker 6 that broke
this and I couldn't get it working again. The probable cause is that
Webpacker 6 no longer transpiles code inside ./node_modules by default,
which means that any libraries we use that use new Javascript features
won't get transpiled down to support old browsers, but even after fixing
that it still didn't work. The workaround is to just drop mobx and
preact entirely to avoid the issue.
Rewrite the tag counter widget (the one above the tag edit box) to use
React. This is a trial run for using React elsewhere.
We actually use Preact instead of React because it's lighter weight.
We use Mobx for state management because it's cleaner than React's
setState or useState.
This incidentally fixes a couple bugs:
* The tag counter wasn't updated when deleting tags with backspace
* The tag counter wasn't updated when pasting in new tags.
This was only used on the saved search index. It let you click on column
headers to sort the table by that column. This doesn't make sense now
that saved searches are paginated.
