Versioning the font resources using webpack

closes #701 (closed)

moving blobs from folder for blobs and static data into sourcecode folder isn't the way to go

can you be more concise? what do you want to be done here?

This MR practically moves generated files (i.e. whatever fontello outputs) from directory for static assets to directory for source code. Although loading fonts via webpack might help, it's a very hacky solution, not to mention it might involve some delays (right now fonts are loaded as soon as page is loaded, with webpack it will be loaded some time later). Real solution would be using something like https://github.com/gabiseabra/fontello-webpack-plugin to bundle fonts during build, possibly removing the need for bundling fonts manually.

I'm not sure what you meant. Could you be more specific?

Figured out why test fails:

You added fontello webpack plugin into base webpack config, but html webpack plugin is defined in prod/dev configs, not karma config. It fails because fontello can't find html-webpack-plugin when run through karma.

I see two options:

1. Add html plugin to karma config (karma.conf.js)
2. Remove fontello webpack plugin from base config and add it to dev/prod configs (which would be preferred since we don't need html/font building in karma)
