Summary:
for users who don't automatically have deep rights
to the document, provide them with attachment metadata only
for rows they have access to. This is a little tricky to
do efficiently. We provide attachment metadata when an
individual table is fetched, rather than on initial document
load, so we don't block that load on a full document scan.
We provide attachment metadata to a client when we see that
we are shipping rows mentioning particular attachments,
without making any effort to keep track of the metadata they
already have.

- New /webhooks event that lists all webhooks in a document (available for owners),
- Monitoring webhooks usage and saving it in memory or Redis,
- Loosening _usubscribe API endpoint, so that the information returned from the /webhook endpoint is enough to unsubscribe,
- Owners can remove webhook without the unsubscribe key.
The endpoint lists all webhooks that are registered in a document, not just webhooks from a single table.
There are two status fields. First for the webhook, second for the last request attempt.
Webhook can have 5 statuses: 'idle', 'sending', 'retrying', 'postponed', 'error', which roughly describes what the
sendLoop is currently doing. The 'error' status describes a situation when all request attempts failed and the queue needs
to be drained, so some requests were dropped.
The last request status can only be: 'success', 'failure' or 'rejected'. Rejected means that the last batch was dropped because the
queue was too long.

Attachments are a special case for granular access control. A user is now allowed to read a given attachment if they have read access to a cell containing its id. So when a user writes to a cell in an attachment column, it is important that they can only write the ids of cells to which they have access. This diff allows a user to add an attachment id in a cell if:
* The user already has access to that a attachment via some existing cell, or
* The user recently updated the attachment, or
* The attachment change is from an undo/redo of a previous action attributed to that user

Summary:
This diff adds a preview of the value of certain autocomplete suggestions, especially of the form `$foo.bar` or `user.email`. The main initial motivation was to show the difference between `$Ref` and `$Ref.DisplayCol`, but the feature is more general.
The client now sends the row ID of the row being edited (along with the table and column IDs which were already sent) to the server to fetch autocomplete suggestions. The returned suggestions are now tuples `(suggestion, example_value)` where `example_value` is a string or null. The example value is simply obtained by evaluating (in a controlled way) the suggestion in the context of the given record and the current user. The string representation is similar to the standard `repr` but dates and datetimes are formatted, and the whole thing is truncated for efficiency.
The example values are shown in the autocomplete popup separated from the actual suggestion by a number of spaces calculated to:
1. Clearly separate the suggestion from the values
2. Left-align the example values in most cases
3. Avoid having so much space such that connecting suggestions and values becomes visually difficult.
The tokenization of the row is then tweaked to show the example in light grey to deemphasise it.
Main discussion where the above was decided: https://grist.slack.com/archives/CDHABLZJT/p1661795588100009
The diff also includes various other small improvements and fixes:
- The autocomplete popup is much wider to make room for long suggestions, particularly lookups, as pointed out in https://phab.getgrist.com/D3580#inline-41007. The wide popup is the reason a fancy solution was needed to position the example values. I didn't see a way to dynamically resize the popup based on suggestions, and it didn't seem like a good idea to try.
- The `grist` and `python` labels previously shown on the right are removed. They were not helpful (https://grist.slack.com/archives/CDHABLZJT/p1659697086155179) and would get in the way of the example values.
- Fixed a bug in our custom tokenization that caused function arguments to be weirdly truncated in the middle: https://grist.slack.com/archives/CDHABLZJT/p1661956353699169?thread_ts=1661953258.342739&cid=CDHABLZJT and https://grist.slack.com/archives/C069RUP71/p1659696778991339
- Hide suggestions involving helper columns like `$gristHelper_Display` or `Table.lookupRecords(gristHelper_Display=` (https://grist.slack.com/archives/CDHABLZJT/p1661953258342739). The former has been around for a while and seems to be a mistake. The fix is simply to use `is_visible_column` instead of `is_user_column`. Since the latter is not used anywhere else, and using it in the first place seems like a mistake more than anything else, I've also removed the function to prevent similar mistakes in the future.
- Don't suggest private columns as lookup arguments: https://grist.slack.com/archives/CDHABLZJT/p1662133416652499?thread_ts=1661795588.100009&cid=CDHABLZJT
- Only fetch fresh suggestions specifically after typing `lookupRecords(` or `lookupOne(` rather than just `(`, as this would needlessly hide function suggestions which could still be useful to see the arguments. However this only makes a difference when there are still multiple matching suggestions, otherwise Ace hides them anyway.
Test Plan: Extended and updated several Python and browser tests.

This adds rudimentary support for opening certain SQLite files in Grist.
If you have a file such as `landing.db` in Grist, you can convert it to Grist format by doing (either in monorepo or grist-core):
```
yarn run cli -h
yarn run cli sqlite -h
yarn run cli sqlite gristify landing.db
```
The file is now openable by Grist. To actually do so with the regular Grist server, you'll need to either import it, or convert some doc you don't care about in the `samples/` directory to be a soft link to it (and then force a reload).
This implementation is a rudimentary experiment. Here are some awkwardnesses:
* Only tables that happen to have a column called `id`, and where the column happens to be an integer, can be opened directly with Grist as it is today. That could be generalized, but it looked more than a Gristathon's worth of work, so I instead used SQLite views.
* Grist will handle tables that start with an uncapitalized letter a bit erratically. You can successfully add columns, for example, but removing them will cause sadness - Grist will rename the table in a confused way.
* I didn't attempt to deal with column names with spaces etc (though views could deal with those).
* I haven't tried to do any fancy type mapping.
* Columns with constraints can make adding new rows impossible in Grist, since Grist requires that a row can be added with just a single cell set.

When a user requests to read the contents of an attachment, only allow the request if there exists a cell in an attachment column that contains the attachment and which they have read access to.
This does not cover:
* Granular write access for attachments. In particular, a user who can write to any attachment column should be considered to have full read access to all attachment columns, currently.
* Access control of attachment metadata such as name and format.
The implementation uses a sql query that requires a scan, and some notes on how this could be optimized in future. The web client was updated to specify the cell to check for access, and performance seemed fine in casual testing on a doc with 1000s of attachments. I'm not sure how performance would hold up as the set of access rules grows as well.

- Raises a special exception to stop trying to evaluate the current cell and just keep the existing value.
- Notes the request arguments which will be returned by `apply_user_actions`.
- Makes the actual request in NodeJS, which sends back the raw response data in a new action `RespondToRequests` which reevaluates the cell(s) that made the request.
- Wraps the response data in a class which mimics the `Response` class of the `requests` library.
In certain cases, this asynchronous flow doesn't work and the sandbox will instead synchronously call an exported JS method:
- When reevaluating a single cell to get a formula error, the request is made synchronously.
- When a formula makes multiple requests, the earlier responses are retrieved synchronously from files which store responses as long as needed to complete evaluating formulas. See https://grist.slack.com/archives/CL1LQ8AT0/p1653399747810139

This allows limiting the memory available to documents in the sandbox when gvisor is used. If memory limit is exceeded, we offer to open doc in recovery mode. Recovery mode is tweaked to open docs with tables in "ondemand" mode, which will generally take less memory and allow for deleting rows.
The limit is on the size of the virtual address space available to the sandbox (`RLIMIT_AS`), which in practice appears to function as one would want, and is the only practical option. There is a documented `RLIMIT_RSS` limit to `specifies the limit (in bytes) of the process's resident set (the number of virtual pages resident in RAM)` but this is no longer enforced by the kernel (neither the host nor gvisor).

When Grist is run inside a container, docker's default policy is insufficient for running gvisor, so a fork of gvisor is used that has less defence-in-depth but can run without privileges.
Sandboxing is automatically turned on in the Grist core container. It is not turned on automatically when built from source, since it is operating-system dependent.

Without the fix, it produces JS errors when search reaches a
RefList:<Date> column.
A better fix would allow a formatter to know that it expects a ReferenceList,
AND to know how to format each value of it, but that's a bigger question
that's outside the scope of this fix.
Test Plan: Includes a browser test which reproduces the bug.

Summary:
- Adds a function `parseUserAction` for parsing strings in UserActions to `ValueParser.ts`
- Adds a boolean option `parseStrings` to use `parseUserAction` in `ActiveDoc.applyUserActions`, off by default.
- Uses `parseStrings` by default in DocApi (set `?noparse=true` in a request to disable) when adding/updating records through the `/data` or `/records` endpoints or in general with the `/apply` endpoint.
- Uses `parseStrings` for various actions in `ActiveDocImport`. Since most types are parsed in Python before these actions are constructed, this only affects references, which still look like errors in the import preview. Importing references can also easily still run into more complicated problems discussed in https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1639514844028200
Test Plan:
- Added tests to DocApi to compare behaviour with and without string parsing.
- Added a new browser test, fixture doc, and fixture CSV to test importing a file containing references.

Summary:
Add more method overrides to MetaTableData for extra type safety.
Use MetaTableData, MetaRowRecord, and getMetaTable in more places.
Test Plan: Mostly it just has to compile. Tested manually that types are being checked more strictly now, e.g. by adding a typo to property names. Some type casting has also been removed.
