Add action to deploy documentation

This was merged using Gerrit, but due to being part of the .github
directory the merge is not showing. After this commit, I will rebase 
with Gerrit.

- Action will run npm install and docs:build and push the static files
    to the gh-pages branch
- Will build documentation and push to the gh-pages branch on every
    push to master
- Tested on a forked repo: https://derick-montague.github.io/webui-vue/
- Workflow that was used is the same as being pushed with this commit:
    https://github.com/derick-montague/webui-vue/actions/runs/316032970/workflow
