e32: PayPal donation widget with modal dialogue

In today's live coding session, we created a simple PayPal donation button that can be added to any page, using a widget and some inline scripting. We had a good discussion on its placement, specifically debating whether to put it in the navbar and how to handle spacing.

During testing, we considered making the donation button more flexible through a Wagtail block or custom setting. Ultimately, we kept the button outside the navbar collapse to make sure it's always visible to users.

We also evaluated different button styles but decided most were too big for our layout. All tests passed, so we went ahead and merged the changes, inching closer to our goal of adding donation features.

While we made significant progress, there's still work to be done, including migrating existing subscribers from the old Drupal site.
