Summary:
The first time a worker opens a document, it will now check if it has any shares the home db needs to be aware of. If so, they will be added. This is important for documents uploaded/copied/forked/replaced, so that their shares work out of the box.
In future, may want some UI to give user control of whether shares are activated after upload/copy/fork/replace.
It seems tricky currently to know if a document is being opened for the first time. As a proxy, I check whether usage information has been calculated and saved to the db, since I can determine that without adding another db query. It is safe to synchronize shares more than necessary.
This leaves two gaps:
* If a document is created/uploaded/copied/forked/replaced and no attempt is made to access it prior to using a share, then that share won't actually be available. Not a problem currently I think, since how would a user have determined the share key. But in future it would be good to also do a sync after creation/upload/copy/fork/replacement/...
* On document replacement, usage info is reset but not absolutely immediately. So in principle shares could fail to be created on first load of the replacement. Usage info reset could be tweaked to give a guarantee here, but also fixing the first point would resolve this second point too.

Summary: Adds `@functools.lru_cache` to `ts_to_dt` and `ts_to_date` which are used in `_make_rich_value` in Date/DateTime columns, i.e. every time such a column is accessed in a formula. I noticed that these operations are surprisingly expensive while working on https://phab.getgrist.com/D4075. This is just an easy way to potentially significantly speed up certain docs and formulas.
Test Plan:
Put this code in an engine test case:
```
def test_(self):
self.apply_user_action(["AddTable", "Table1", [
{"id": "A", "type": "DateTime:America/Chicago"},
]])
self.add_records("Table1", ["A"], [
[i] for i in range(1000)
])
formula = "for _ in range(1000): $A\nreturn 1"
import time
start = time.time()
self.add_column(
"Table1", formula, type="Any", isFormula=True, formula=formula
)
elapsed = time.time() - start
print(f"Took {elapsed:.2f} for formula {formula}")
```
The time goes from ~10s to ~1s. Similar tests showed no noticeable slowdown when caching had no effect.

Summary:
This gives a mechanism for controlling access control within a document that is distinct from (though implemented with the same machinery as) granular access rules.
It was hard to find a good way to insert this that didn't dissolve in a soup of complications, so here's what I went with:
* When reading rules, if there are shares, extra rules are added.
* If there are shares, all rules are made conditional on a "ShareRef" user property.
* "ShareRef" is null when a doc is accessed in normal way, and the row id of a share when accessed via a share.
There's no UI for controlling shares (George is working on it for forms), but you can do it by editing a `_grist_Shares` table in a document. Suppose you make a fresh document with a single page/table/widget, then to create an empty share you can do:
```
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.sendAction(['AddRecord', '_grist_Shares', null, {linkId: 'xyz', options: '{"publish": true}'}])
```
If you look at the home db now there should be something in the `shares` table:
```
$ sqlite3 -table landing.db "select * from shares"
+----+------------------------+------------------------+--------------+---------+
| id | key | doc_id | link_id | options |
+----+------------------------+------------------------+--------------+---------+
| 1 | gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K | 4qYuace1xP2CTcPunFdtan | xyz | ... |
+----+------------------------+------------------------+--------------+---------+
```
If you take the key from that (gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K in this case) and replace the document's urlId in its URL with `s.<key>` (in this case `s.gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K` then you can use the regular document landing page (it will be quite blank initially) or API endpoint via the share.
E.g. for me `http://localhost:8080/o/docs/s0gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K/share-inter-3` accesses the doc.
To actually share some material - useful commands:
```
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.getMetaTable('_grist_Views_section').getRecords()
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.sendAction(['UpdateRecord', '_grist_Views_section', 1, {shareOptions: '{"publish": true, "form": true}'}])
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.getMetaTable('_grist_Pages').getRecords()
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.sendAction(['UpdateRecord', '_grist_Pages', 1, {shareRef: 1}])
```
For a share to be effective, at least one page needs to have its shareRef set to the rowId of the share, and at least one widget on one of those pages needs to have its shareOptions set to {"publish": "true", "form": "true"} (meaning turn on sharing, and include form sharing), and the share itself needs {"publish": true} on its options.
I think special shares are kind of incompatible with public sharing, since by their nature (allowing access to all endpoints) they easily expose the docId, and changing that would be hard.

Summary:
This removes checking for full access in `onRecord/onRecords` when `includeColumns` is a non-default value. The check had two problems:
1. It relied on the access level being present in the URL query parameters, which doesn't work if the page has redirected. See the discussion in https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1702576602615509. There seems to be no way to reliably and synchronously check the access level.
2. Calling `onRecords` before `ready` and forgetting to handle an error from the access check meant that `ready` wouldn't be called, so Grist couldn't request the correct access level from the user. I made this mistake and it seems like a nasty footgun.
Ultimately this has no effect on security, as an error will still be raised, but in a place where the widget developer can't catch it. They'll still see an error message in the console, and they can still check the access level reliably using `onOptions`, so I think this is OK.

After adding a batch of new server tests, some interactions between
tests have shown up via a shared database. This sets an existing flag
for dealing with this problem, that is used during browser tests but
hadn't been needed before for server tests.
Summary:
This moves some more tests to core that would be useful for ANCT,
which had been stuck in grist-saas due to some entanglements with
sendgrid and billing. For sendgrid, I've moved around just enough
material to permit the tests to run mostly unchanged. Ideally
the interface to a notification system would be generalized, but
that's a bigger project.
Test Plan:
checked that tests are likely to run as expected
in core using preview laid out by ./buildtools/build_core.sh
