📋 Description

This change enables Nexterm to automatically generate a self-signed certificate when both cert files are missing from the expected directory. Additionally, it adds some .env controls to disable this function, as well as define cert file locations. I made this change to help alleviate some issues users are experiencing with browser clipboard permission, since the issue is very unclear to the end user and it is better in general to use even a self-signed cert instead of plain http.

Various changes were also made to the development environment to support this.

This change should be noted as a breaking change in the release notes as it changes ports and disables http.
