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.

Summary:
When Grist is embedded, calls to focus() cause the outer page to scroll to the embed iframe. Because this happens automatically on load, this cause the page to jump to the embed (not consistent across browsers, but at least in Chrome on Windows).
This change changes the automatic focus() calls to avoid scrolling. In the normal app, it should make no difference; in embedded context, this avoids the unexpected scrolling of the parent page.
Test Plan: Tested manually, with Anais's help: in her browser, embedded Grist consistently caused the page to jump to the embed before the change, and not after.

Summary:
Two summary table widgets that share a source table and have compatible groupby columns can be filter linked. This diff fixes a bug where this linking is broken when the source table is hidden by access rules. The source table data isn't needed for the linking, but its metadata is, and that metadata is censored by GranularAccess. To deal with this:
- `LinkConfig._assertValid` allows blank `tableId`s specifically for linking two summary tables.
- `LinkingState.filterColValues` gets the `colId`s of groupby columns from the summary table columns rather than the source table.
A closely related problem is that the titles of summary tables are incomplete when the source table is hidden, e.g. they just say `[by A]` instead of `Table1 [by A]`. To fix this, the raw view sections of source tables are 'uncensored' in GranularAccess.
Initially I also planned to uncensor the tableId of the source table, which seemed like a better and more general fix for the blank tableId problem. But several parts of client code use blank tableIds to know that a table should be hidden, so they were left as is.
Test Plan: Added an nbrowser test for summary table linking, and a server test for uncensoring the raw view section in GranularAccess.

Summary:
Diff fixes an annoying issue when the left panel would sometimes
auto-expand when the user is resizing the window. Alghouth it is quite
easy to reproduce the issue still would happen a bit randomly.
Here are what was done to fix it:
1) The most annoying manifestation of the issue happens with doc menu
page. Indeed the panel is not meant to be collapsing hence triggering
overlapping expansion messes UI a great deal. This was fix by
asserting that the panel was collapsible before triggering expansion
`if (left.hideOpener) { return; }`.
2) To prevent issue to happen also with doc page, we first test
whether the user is actually dragging using `ev1.buttons !== 0` and
also we've added a `isScreeResizingObs` observable. Although this
seems to have fixed the problem for me, other developers still
reports occurence of the issue on there machine but at a lesser
frequence. It is unknown what this solution does not fully work,
still situation seems acceptable now (most annoying part was 1st
item).
Diff also brings another small improvement when using Grist in a split
screen setup when Grist is on the right. Moving cursor back and forth
between the two windows would frequently leave the left panel
inadvertandly expanded. Diff added a fix to allow panel to collapse
when cursor leave window.
Test Plan: Tested manually as it is hard to test when selenium.

Summary:
Makes the following improvements to formula autocomplete:
- When a user types `$RefCol` (or part of it), also show `$RefCol.VisibleCol` (replace actual column names) in the autocomplete even before the `.` is typed, to help users understand the difference between a raw reference/record and its visible column.
- When a user types a table name, show `.lookupOne` and `.lookupRecords` in the autocomplete, again even before the `.` is typed.
- For `.lookupRecords(` and `.lookupOne(`, once the `(` is entered, suggest each column name as a keyword argument.
- Also suggest lookup arguments involving compatible reference columns, especially 'reverse reference' lookups like `refcol=$id` which are very common and difficult for users.
- To support these features, the Ace editor autocomplete needs some patching to fetch fresh autocomplete options after typing `.` or `(`. This also improves unrelated behaviour that wasn't great before when one column name is contained in another. See the first added browser test.
