Simplify Server Import Paths for Common Code

[dedl0x]

What does this change do?

This change adds index.ts files to some directories in the common and server projects, allowing for many classes and types to be represented as exports from the directory path itself. This allows several import statements to be consolidated into a single statement, which this change also addresses.

This change also leverages the paths feature in the TypeScript configuration file to alias the ../common/src/ path as @common. This shortens the target path for the import statements while not obfuscating the desired import target. To yield runnable Javascript output files, the tsc-alias package was added as a developer dependency. All build commands were updated to use tsc-alias to convert the path aliases back to relative paths in the resulting distributables.

How was this change regression tested?

• The server code was rebuilt using npm run build, which did not report any errors.
• The built server was started using node ./dist/server/src/server.js. The following output was observed.
