Testing & bug fixing live scraper

FINALLY, got a live scraper to scrape, /projects & /devlogs. This allows for liveish stats. These refresh every 30s.
Fixed missing devlogs & time affecting projects, I had to make another scraper to handle this by using /projects/{id} to grab the specific projects, and /devlogs/{id} for the specific missing devlogs. Hitting some rate limiting right now on the fix missing devlog scraper. Also made a TUI for my scraper to handle all my various scripts. Lots of messing around on my supabase to find devlogs, trouble shoot, make some RPCs etc. It was painful to say the least

Added theme controls, currently has two that you can choose

Added slack ID to user profiles to easily find a user

Fixed navbar, now consistent across all pages. Did some scraping scripts that were not recorded on hackatime
Refreshed leader boards etc. Might ship soon

I fixed a lot of issues and bugs. Reverted API docs, and changes to the backend DB.ex. Calling random projects as an RPS from supabase instead of getting “random” projects manually, this ensures that these are truely random, added a filter to ensure default banner projects are excluded since this are normally default starter projects which have no time or content. Redone projects structure to make it more suitable for more vertical screens. Formatting, redone some DB.ex structure. A lot of work of the supabase tables to make RPCs work correctly, supabase tables needed maintenance etc to ensure they are happy.

Added openAPI schema for @SeradedStripes
