2563fb745a (core) make Grist easier to run with a single server
Summary:
This makes many small changes so that Grist is less fussy to run as a single instance behind a reverse proxy. Some users had difficulty with the self-connections Grist would make, due to internal network setup, and since these are unnecessary in any case in this scenario, they are now optimized away. Likewise some users had difficulties related to doc worker urls, which are now also optimized away. With these changes, users should be able to get a lot further on first try, at least far enough to open and edit documents.

The `GRIST_SINGLE_ORG` setting was proving a bit confusing, since it appeared to only work when set to `docs`. This diff
adds a check for whether the specified org exists, and if not, it creates it. This still depends on having a user email to make as the owner of the team, so there could be remaining difficulties there.

Test Plan: tested manually with nginx

1517dca644 (core) Implement DiscourseConnect to enable easy sign-in to community forum
Summary:
- Update cookie module, to support modern sameSite settings
- Add a new cookie, grist_sid_status with less-sensitive value, to let less-trusted subdomains know if user is signed in
- The new cookie is kept in-sync with the session cookie.
- For a user signed in once, allow auto-signin is appropriate.
- For a user signed in with multiple accounts, show a page to select which account to use.
- Move css stylings for rendering users to a separate module.

Test Plan: Added a test case with a simulated Discourse page to test redirects and account-selection page.

383b8ffbf0 (core) add a tool for deleting a user
Summary:
This adds a `user:delete` target to the `cli.sh` tool. The desired user will be deleted from our database, from sendgrid, and from cognito.

There is code for scrubbing the user from team sites, but it isn't yet activated, I'm leaving finalizing and writing tests for it for follow-up.

Test Plan: tested manually

f9630b3aa4 (core) clean up a collection of small problems affecting grist-core
Summary:
 * Remove adjustSession hack, interfering with loading docs under saml.
 * Allow the anonymous user to receive an empty list of workspaces for
   the merged org.
 * Behave better on first page load when org is in path - this used to
   fail because of lack of cookie.  This is very visible in grist-core,
   as a failure to load localhost:8484 on first visit.
 * Mark cookie explicitly as SameSite=Lax to remove a warning in firefox.
 * Make errorPages available in grist-core.

This changes the default behavior of grist-core to now start off in
anonymous mode, with an explicit sign-in step available.  If SAML is not configured,
the sign-in operation will unconditionally sign the user in as a default
user, without any password check or other security.  The user email is
taken from GRIST_DEFAULT_EMAIL if set.  This is a significant change, but
makes anonymous mode available in grist-core (which is convenient
for testing) and makes behavior with and without SAML much more consistent.

Test Plan: updated test; manual (time to start adding grist-core tests though!)
