Add some logging related stubs to express backend

The master process will continue to start at port 3000.  In practice, this
ought to make conflicts between master-superviced processes and ones run by
hand less of an issue.

+## high importance

+- [ ] Add unit tests all over the place.
+  - ⚠️ Huge task - needs breakdown before starting
+
+- [ ] Add logging service
+  - New golang program, in the same directory as master
+    - Intended to be started by master
+    - Listens to a port specified command line arg
+    - Accepts POSTed (or possibly PUT) json messages, currently in a
+      to-be-defined format.  We will work on this format later.
+    - Keeps the most recent N messages in memory.  N can be a fairly large
+      number; let's start by assuming 1 million.
+      
+- [ ] Log to logging service from the express backend
+  - Fill out types and functions in `express/logging.ts`

+- [ ] Create initial docker-compose.yml file for local development

+- [ ] Add middleware concept
