allow for using SVG logos in the navbar

this uses our ✨new and improved✨ logo by default, but can be easily
changed by modifying `/public/logo.svg`.  the svg is loaded only once
when the application starts, so any modifications to it after a
deployment are visible immediately.

thanks to the power of CSS and SVG being able to make use of it, custom
colour schemes still work too.
