This will have done its job now, everyone's had long enough to
install a newer version of Riot and migrate to the new origin.
Laves the code on the backend that handles it for the time being,
as per comment.
in Electron get config via IPC from main process
which has access to the "local" config.json override file
and can make people happy :D
Remove bunch of duplicated code,
and move comments around to put them in the right place

This avoids a canvas permission prompt from appearing on page load for users in
Firefox's resist fingerprinting mode. The prompt will still happen once you log
in and receive a notification, but at least this prevents it from happening
during the initial app experience.
Fixes https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/9605
App checks at startup for an existing session, if there isn't one,
it will start the tool to check for a login in the file:// origin.
If there is one, it will copy the login over to the vector://vector
origin.
In principle this could also be used to migrate logins between
other origins on the web if this were ever required.
This includes a minified copy of the browserified js-sdk with
a getAllEndToEndSessions() function added to the crypto store
(https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk/pull/812). This is
not great, but for a short-lived tool this seems better than
introducing more entry points into webpack only used for the
electron app.
* Turn off node integration in the electron renderer process
* Enable the chromium sandbox to put the renderer into its own process
* Expose just the ipc module with a preload script
* Introduce a little IPC call wrapper so we can call into the
renderer process and await on the result.
* Use this in a bunch of places we previously used direct calls
to electron modules.
* Convert other uses of node, eg. use of process to derive the
platform (just look at the user agent)
* Strip out the desktopCapturer integration which doesn't appear
to have ever worked (probably best to just wait until
getDisplayMedia() is available in chrome at this point:
https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/4880).
