entirely refactor src/modules/requests.js
Its now been split into 2, requests.js and releases.js, the latter simply gets relevant info from GitHub release pages. The prior however gives simple functions for doing `GET` requests, and caching the result, and then transparently it'll use that cache when you request it next time. On top of this, some requests made by the renderer will now also use this, and this in turn ends up making loading the mod browser much faster. As instead of having to request the list of packages from Thunderstore, we can simply load the result of an old request. The current lifetime of the cache is 5 minutes, however this can also easily be adjusted. This also moves the cached requests away from <cache_folder>/viper-requests.json, and over to <cache_folder>/Viper/cached-requests.json
