feat: handling error gracefully

Currently errors are only logged into stdout. Let's implement a close to real example of error handling for the POC

URLs in README.md return 404

This would probably be better as a PR than as an issue. Unfortunately, I do not have the repo permissions to push a branch and open a PR.

The URLs for the chat and todo service in the Running section of the README return 404s because the routes are not implemented:

You also should be able to access the microservices at:
  - Todo list manager - http://localhost:4001/
  - Chat service - http://localhost:4002/
  - Tech News reader - http://localhost:4003/

This can be resolved in chat by redirecting / to /chat:

use axum::{
  response::Redirect,  // this is new
  routing::{get, post},
  Router,
};
...
let app = Router::new()
.route("/", get(|| async { Redirect::permanent("/chat") })) // this is new
.route("/chat", get(crate::http_handlers::index_page))
...

This can be resolved in todo by redirecting / to /todos:

...
router := mux.NewRouter().StrictSlash(true)

router.HandleFunc("/", Redirect()).Methods("GET") // this is new
router.HandleFunc("/todos", IndexHandler(repo)).Methods("GET")
...

func Redirect() http.HandlerFunc {
	return func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		http.Redirect(w, r, "/todos", http.StatusSeeOther)
	}
}
