[feat] Shrunk the UI of Hacknet Nodes to view more at a time on screen.

The UI of a single Hacknet Node now only takes up ~50% of the screen.
This allows two nodes to be displayed per "row" when the screen is wide
enough.

Also repositioned the buttons for the nodes so they are inline with the
information each updates. This visual correlation lets us reduce the
text that needs to be in each button.

Also reduced the amount of DOM that needs to be continuously garbage
collected by updating specific text rather than throwing out entire HTML
elements.
