526b0ad33e (core) Configure more comprehensive eslint rules for Typescript
Summary:
- Update rules to be more like we've had with tslint
- Switch tsserver plugin to eslint (tsserver makes for a much faster way to lint in editors)
- Apply suggested auto-fixes
- Fix all lint errors and warnings in core/, app/, test/

Test Plan: Some behavior may change subtly (e.g. added missing awaits), relying on existing tests to catch problems.

bd6a54e901 (core) mitigate csrf by requiring custom header for unsafe methods
Summary:
For methods other than `GET`, `HEAD`, and `OPTIONS`, allow cookie-based authentication only if a certain custom header is present.

Specifically, we check that `X-Requested-With` is set to `XMLHttpRequest`. This is somewhat arbitrary, but allows us to use https://expressjs.com/en/api.html#req.xhr.

A request send from a browser that sets a custom header will prompt a preflight check, giving us a chance to check if the origin is trusted.

This diff deals with getting the header in place. There will be more work to do after this:
 * Make sure that all important endpoints are checking origin.  Skimming code, /api endpoint check origin, and some but not all others.
 * Add tests spot-testing origin checks.
 * Check on cases that authenticate differently.
    - Check the websocket endpoint - it can be connected to from an arbitrary site; there is per-doc access control but probably better to lock it down more.
    - There may be old endpoints that authenticate based on knowledge of a client id rather than cookies.

Test Plan: added a test

b71f2f2a10 (core) add a deployment test for Import-from-URL, and fix underlying issue
Summary:
 * Adds a simple deployment test for the "Import from URL" button.
 * Makes server aware of plugin hostnames in the appropriate places.
 * Unrelated but convenient: allows following redirection when importing.

Test Plan:
Added tests. The `local_deployment` test works.  A modified
version of this works against `staging_deployment` (using a test url that
doesn't require redirection; also staging currently has a hot fix that can
hopefully be removed once the code fix included here is in).

5ef889addd (core) move home server into core
Summary: This moves enough server material into core to run a home server.  The data engine is not yet incorporated (though in manual testing it works when ported).

Test Plan: existing tests pass
