Summary:
Grist would get stuck in a broken state in certain browsers
that enabled the bfcache when the browser back/forward
buttons were clicked. Firefox automatically disabled the cache
since we listen on the 'beforeunload' event, but Chrome and Safari
did not. This change forces a page refresh on pageshow if we
detect that Grist was loaded from the bfcache.
Test Plan: Tested manually in various browsers.

Added ChoiceListParser capable of parsing JSON, CSVs, and other strings containing user-configured choices (e.g. separated by spaces)
I got a little carried away here. It works, and I can't think of any bugs, but it's complicated enough that there could be hidden edge cases or difficulties maintaining it in the future. The advantage of the current method is that it should work well for ambiguous or poorly formatted inputs, e.g. choices separated only by spaces or choices containing commas which are not escaped/quoted properly. The code can be vastly simplified if we don't try to support that and require that users paste proper JSON or CSVs.
Test Plan: Added a new file test/common/ChoiceListParser.ts with pure unit tests. Waiting for approval of the overall approach before adding to the nbrowser CopyPaste test.

BulkAddRecord when finishing imports of nested JSON was throwing
an error due to unchecked access of referencing tables. This adds
a guard to prepare_new_values to handle such cases.
Imports happened to cause this to occur because the order that
imported tables are created/populated isn't aware of references
between tables, so it's possible for a reference column to
exist (momentarily) without a valid reference to another table.
These references are currently fixed after all imported tables are

The value contains the original raw string (to be used as alt text), the column ID to lookup (typically the visible column) and one or more values to lookup.
For reflists, valueParser now tries parsing the string first as JSON, then as a CSV row, and applies the visible column parsed to each item.
Both ref and reflists columns no longer format the parsed value when there's no matching reference, the original unparsed string is used as alttext instead.

Summary:
Grist has, up to now, used a throttling mechanism that allows a sandbox free rein until it starts using above some threshold percentage of a cpu for some time - at that point, we start sending STOP and CONT signals on a duty cycle, with longer and longer STOPped periods until cpu usage is at a threshold. The general idea is to do short jobs quickly, while throttling long jobs (thus unfortunately making them even longer) in order to continue doing other short jobs quickly.
The runsc sandbox is not a single process, there are in fact 5 per sandbox in our setup. Runsc can work with kvm or ptrace. Kvm is not available to us, so we use ptrace. With ptrace, there is one process that is the appropriate one to duty cycle, and another that needs to receive a signal in order to yield. This diff adds the necessary machinery.
This is a conservative change, where I stick with our existing throttling mechanism and adapt it to the new sandbox. It would be reasonable to consider switching throttling. There's a lot the OS allows. We can set a quota for how much cpu a process can use within a given period, for example. However the overall behavior with that would be quite different to what we have, so feels like this would need more discussion.
The implementation contains use of a linux utility `pgrep` since portability is not important (runsc is only available on linux) and there's no node api for enumerating children of a process.
The diff contains some tweaks to `buildtools/contain.sh` to streamline experimenting with Grist and runsc on a mac. It is important for throttling that node and the sandbox processes are in the same process name space, if docker is in between them then some extra machinery is needed (a proxy throttler and a way to communicate with it) which I chose not to implement.

Summary:
Shares of the same role (e.g. viewer) at different levels could interact for a resource (e.g. a doc) shared with everyone@, potentially blocking the listing of that resource. This diff removes the interaction.
The permission of a user on a resource is calculated by finding all acl rules that link that resource to a group to which the user belongs, or to a group that has a subgroup to which the user belongs, etc, and then bitwise-or-ing the permissions on the acl rules. A later wrinkle was to allow public sharing via special users. A still later wrinkle was to avoid listing resources if they were only shared with the special everyone@ user, while allowing access to them if user has their full link. That wrinkle had a bug, where if e.g. a doc were shared with everyone@ as a viewer, and the org the doc was in was shared with someone@ as a viewer, and the doc inherited the org permissions via a workspace, then that doc would end up not being listed.
The fix is straightforward enough, but needs different code for postgres and sqlite, and is a bit verbose because we unwrap subgroups to a few levels rather than doing recursion (which looks cleaner but was slower in benchmarks).

* Collaborators are marked `1 of 2`, `2 of 2`, and then `limit exceeded`.
* On a team site, links are offered for each collaborator to add them to the team. The links lead to a prefilled dialog for managing team membership which can be confirmed immediately, allowing the user to continue without interruption.
* On a personal site, for the last collaborator and beyond, a link is added for creating a team. This isn't seamless since creating a team involves billing etc.
