Fixing webpack proxy configuration

[ederign]

Description

At least on my machine, when I run the FE, I got an error:

(base) ➜  frontend git:(webpack-fix) node --version                                                                                                                             (kind-nbv2-1/default)

[webpack-cli] Invalid options object. Dev Server has been initialized using an options object that does not match the API schema.
 - options.proxy should be an array:
   [object { … } | function, ...]
   -> Allows to proxy requests, can be useful when you have a separate API backend development server and you want to send API requests on the same domain.

After my changes:

I'm not an webpack expert, please review this carefully!

@alexcreasy, how did you test this when you introduced it? because /api is 404 right now on the BFF.
