Re-implement the sidebar's vertical toolbar
This commit re-implements the vertical toolbar on the left edge of the sidebar to make future changes to the toolbar UI easier (eg. some upcoming a11y changes) and to decouple it from the rest of the annotator application (the toolbar and `Sidebar`/`Guest` classes currently access each other's internals in a rather haphazard way). The new implementation has a similar code structure to the `Adder` toolbar that is shown when selecting text. It consists of: 1. A Preact component in `src/annotator/components/toolbar` which renders the toolbar UI according to the current state 2. A controller class in `src/annotator/toolbar.js` which renders the Preact component into a container element and has provides properties that the `Sidebar` and `Guest` classes can use to update its state. The controller takes only the container element and callbacks associated with each button as inputs, so it no longer calls methods on the Guest/Sidebar. The sidebar and guest now update the toolbar UI by setting properties on the toolbar controller, rather than using a mixture of manual manipulation of the toolbar DOM and publishing events which get eventually translated to method calls on the toolbar. If we convert the remainder of the sidebar UI from jQuery/manual DOM updates to Preact in future, then we can remove the toolbar controller entirely and just render the toolbar component from within the sidebar component.
