Name Examination UI: update framework and devops

[severinbeauvais]

To do:

• update Vue version (and vue-cli)
• update Vuetify version
• update Webpack
• update other libraries (to match other Entity UIs)
• update babel
• update/configure linting
• update browserlist
• update npm scripts

Possibly a future ticket(s):

• get rid of jQuery
• update Stylus/SASS -> SCSS? (see also Name Examination UI - Update Icon Library and Icons #8316)
• update Jest and vue-test-utils (may be done already)
• fix broken unit tests (including tests with warnings)
• update node/npm version (see bottom of package.json)?
• update CD and CI scripts?
• update processes through OCP4?
• update caddy -> nginx ? (or rename OCP4 objects)

re Vue3
some updates, like using the composition API, moving away from classes and mixins can be done now.
the rest is blocked by vuetify which is targeting Q3, but looking at their board I think that date will get pushed.

also, with the bulk of any changes pending vuetify, dumping webpack and going vite will be a serious option for us.
vite is so fast i still giggle.

Eventually if we don't deal with this we won't be able to maintain it.
