The author of intercooler.js has a new library, HTMX. It should do every thing we were using intercooler for, and it does not require jQuery, so we can remove a big dependency.

This will also require replacing the lightbox plugin, since magnific-popup uses jQuery. It might be feasible to just write one in terms of htmx; it might make it easier to deal with the back button issue, too. I also probably need to rewrite some misc. utility JS to not use jQuery.

Doing this in multiple stages:

replace intercooler with htmx (as is), leaving jQuery in place for lightbox
Write new lightbox on another feature branch and test.
Remove jQuery from misc. JS on another branch and remove jQuery
