We need a manifest generated and a bit of PHP to lookup the file names in that manifest

Added a manifest file for both the JS and CSS parts. Unfortunately I can't seem to figure out how to chunk common the same way that it was being before upgrading Webpack, so jQuery is getting loaded multiple times.

If I recall correctly I think some other chunk was pulling in jQuery as well? I'll pull again and take a look at it.

Still never got a chance to check out the jQuery issue but I did resolve conflicts and bump some dependencies.
