Render admin page errors in the normal layout (closes #382)

Every 400, 403, 404 and 500 on an admin page now answers with an
error page in the normal layout: one fixed line for the status and a
link back to the webhook list, or to sign-in when nobody is signed
in. The router's handler for unknown paths and the CSRF middleware's
refusal use the same page. Status codes are unchanged. The receiver,
the healthcheck and /metrics keep their plain answers. If the error
page itself cannot render, the answer is the same status in plain
text.

 ## Third-party browser assets
 
-The web UI serves one third-party script, Alpine.js. It is **not** committed:
-a minified bundle in the tree is unreviewable, and `REPO_POLICIES.md` bars
-both committed build artifacts and unpinned external references.
+The web UI serves one third-party script, Alpine.js. Its npm package tarball
+is committed as `3p/alpinejs-3.14.9.tgz`, byte for byte as the npm registry
+publishes it. It is a dependency, not this repo's build output, so
+`REPO_POLICIES.md`'s rule against committed build artifacts does not apply.
+The directory is `3p/` rather than `vendor/` because Go treats a root
+`vendor/` directory as its module vendor directory.
 
-Instead `script/fetch-assets` downloads it from a pinned URL, checks the
-download against a hardcoded sha256, and installs it under `static/`. The
-sha256 of every installed asset is recorded in `static/vendor.sha256`, and
-`static/vendor_test.go` re-hashes the bytes `go:embed` put in the binary
-against that manifest — so the pin is enforced on what actually ships, not
-merely written down. Any mismatch fails the build.
+`script/assets` (`make assets`) extracts the browser build,
+`package/dist/cdn.min.js`, from the tarball to `static/js/alpine.min.js`,
+where `go:embed` picks it up. `script/test`, `make build` and `make dev` run
+it first, and the Dockerfile builds through `make test` and `make build`, so
+nothing downloads Alpine.js. The extracted file is not committed, and
+`.dockerignore` keeps any host copy out of the build context.
 
-`make bootstrap` runs the fetch for local development, and the Dockerfile
-runs it in the build stage; `.gitignore` and `.dockerignore` keep the
-artifact out of both the repo and the build context.
-
-To move to a new version: update the version, URL, and tarball sha256 in
-`script/fetch-assets` and the asset sha256 in `static/vendor.sha256`, then
-run `make assets && make check`.
+To move to a new version: download
+`https://registry.npmjs.org/alpinejs/-/alpinejs-<version>.tgz`, check it
+against the `dist.integrity` hash listed at
+`https://registry.npmjs.org/alpinejs/<version>`, replace the tarball in `3p/`
+with it, update its file name in `script/assets`, and run `make check`.
