Matchu e8ed459afd Remove the web group permission stuff from deploy
I'm not doing this thoroughly enough for it to matter (e.g. the deployed rsynced versions aren't having the group permissions set).

I think doing this *right* (to be extensible to additional users) is too much complexity to be worth it, and doing it halfway is more confusing than helpful.

I did this because I was anticipating multi-users permissions to be a bit of an issue for like, granting the web server permission to access the source code. But it turns out, since we're running with pm2, it's all working just fine!

Impress 2020 is deployed to a VPS server. We use this Ansible Playbook to
automate the environment setup!

We expect to be deploying to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, initially with nothing
installed. The user you deploy with should have sudoers access. That should be
all it takes!

First, run `yarn deploy-setup` in the app root, to run the `setup.yml`
playbook. This will prompt you for your root password, to set up system
dependencies. It should be safe to re-run this, including if you add a new
dependency to the playbook, because the steps are non-destructive and Ansible
will skip steps that are already satisfied.

Then, to deploy a new version of the app, run `yarn deploy`. This will build
the app from the code on your machine, then send the source and build output
to the remote machine, and switch it to be the new production version. Nice!
