Subject: [PATCH] Move rust-sdk wasm artifact into bundles directory (#28718)

As of https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk-crypto-wasm/pull/167, the
wasm build of matrix-sdk-crypto is actually shipped as a `.wasm` file, rather
than base64-ed into Javascript. Our current webpack config then dumps it into
the top level of the build directory, which will be a problem on redeployment
(specifically, if you try to fetch the wasm artifact for vN after vN+1 has been
deployed, you'll get a 404 and sadness).

So, instead we use Webpack's experimental support for WASM-as-ES-module, which
makes Webpack put the wasm file in the bundle, along with everything else.

Fixes: https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/issues/28632
