Previously, assets (images and fonts) hosted on squonk.informaticsmatter.org were used. Although this worked ok there were several issues with this method.
This PR brings the assets into a local folder via a Git subtree to a new repo. The images are then directly accessed using the NextJS
Imagetag, which has optimization benefits. The fonts are now loaded locally with thenext/fontmodule rather than our SASS loader. This allows us to remove the dependency on SASS entirely. It, additionally, can bring some optimizations via the next/font library to reduce bad behaviours like layout shift.
