Use a catchall for single page apps. (#763)

This creates a new environment variable, CERC_SINGLE_PAGE_APP, which controls whether a catchall redirection back to / is applied. If the value is not explicitly set, we try to detect if the page looks like a single-page app. Reviewed-on: https://git.vdb.to/cerc-io/stack-orchestrator/pulls/763 Co-authored-by: Thomas E Lackey <[email protected]> Co-committed-by: Thomas E Lackey <[email protected]>
