ACE editor causing 404 errors every time you try to edit a file in the WebUI

Description
Reported by Big Consumer Electronics Company.
We use the ACE gem for the the text editor when editing files via the WebUI. This gem tries to detect the language the file or text is in to add syntax highlighting (this is on by default). Since we don't include any of the ace
assets in our pipeline, they will always cause a 404 error when you open the editor.

Replication
It is still the case with 8.1.2.
Next steps
It might be possible for us to disable syntax highlighting so that we don't pollute the nginx logs.
@rspeicher do you want to have a look at this?
