Adds support for test mode on web apps.
Uses Playwright to generate an inspectable web session. Playwright includes a binary dependency that isn't currently available on Python 3.12.
Removes the need for a web project to specify a style backend. It is now possible for a Python package to specify "inserts" that will be injected into the static web page. The existing support for aggregating CSS content has been migrated to this new "inserts" system. This means that
index.htmlis re-written on build, replacing the inserted content.This code is currently able to run the default pytest project generated by Briefcase. However, it can't run the Toga testbed app; see the Toga PR for the reasons.
Fixes #1166.
