Static Site Builder Changes & Fixes

• Feature: Auto Path Builder (Inspired by Nuxt.js)
  • The Static Site Builder (SSB) will use the page file name and relative location within the 05-pages/ directory as the distribution URL when the project gets built. For instance, if someone creates a design/design.twig file, the distribution path on build will be /design.
  • This feature eliminates the need for an 06-dist/ directory, as well as the need to manually specify the page URL in the Gulpfile.js, reducing the SSB bundle size by removing unneeded files and making the SSB more user-friendly for less technical users.

• Molecules, and Organisms sections.
• Issue: Various spacing fixes for mobile display.
• Issue: Components and Development pages had an incorrect label on the local navigation button on mobile.
