This function was mistyped; it was used in practice both accepting
string[] and number[], with the implementation taking advantage of the
fact that number.parseInt(<int>, 10) = <int>.
The only string[] callers were some overly defensive typing_data tests
that don't match the actual typing_data interface, so we remove the
string[] support and adjust the function's type, as well as those
tests.
Ever since we started bundling the app with webpack, there’s been less
and less overlap between our ‘static’ directory (files belonging to
the frontend app) and Django’s interpretation of the ‘static’
directory (files served directly to the web).
Split the app out to its own ‘web’ directory outside of ‘static’, and
remove all the custom collectstatic --ignore rules. This makes it
much clearer what’s actually being served to the web, and what’s being
bundled by webpack. It also shrinks the release tarball by 3%.
