Summary:
- Node has a strong recommendation to assume bad state and exit promptly on
unhandled exceptions and rejections. We follow it, and only make an effort to
clean up before exiting, and to log the error in a more standard way.
- The only case seen in recent month of an unhandled rejection was for
attempting to write overly large JSON to a Client websocket. Ensure that's
handled, and add a test case that artificially reproduces this scenario.
Test Plan:
Added a test case for failing write to Client, and a test case that unhandled
errors indeed kill the server but with an attempt at cleanup.

Summary:
- Implements MemoryPool for waiting on memory reservations.
- Uses MemoryPool to control memory used for stringifying JSON responses in Client.ts
- Limits total size of _missedMessages that may be queued for a particular client.
- Upgrades ws library, which may reduce memory usage, and allows pausing the websocket for testing.
- The upgrade changed subtle behavior corners, requiring various fixes to code and tests.
- dos.ts:
- Includes Paul's fixes and updates to the dos.ts script for manual stress-testing.
- Logging tweaks, to avoid excessive dumps on uncaughtError, and include timestamps.
Test Plan:
- Includes a test that measures heap size, and fails without memory management.
- Includes a unittest for MemoryPool
- Some cleanup and additions to TestServer helper; in particular adds makeUserApi() helper used in multiple tests.
- Some fixes related to ws upgrade.

Summary:
Importing a .grist document is implemented in a somewhat clunky way, in a multi-worker setup.
* First a random worker receives the upload, and updates Grist's various stores appropriately (database, redis, s3).
* Then a random worker is assigned to serve the document.
If the worker serving the document fails, there is a chance the it will end up assigned to the worker that handled its upload. Currently the worker will misbehave in this case. This diff:
* Ports a multi-worker test from test/home to run in test/s3, and adds a test simulating a bad scenario seen in the wild.
* Fixes persistence of any existing document checksum in redis when a worker is assigned.
* Adds a check when assigned a document to serve, and finding that document already cached locally. It isn't safe to rely only on the document checksum in redis, since that may have expired.
* Explicitly claims the document on the uploading worker, so this situation becomes even less likely to arise.
Test Plan: added test

Summary:
Exposing custom widgets as a dropdown menu in custom section configuration panel.
Adding new environmental variable GRIST_WIDGET_LIST_URL that points to a
json file with an array of available widgets. When not present, custom widget menu is
hidden, exposing only Custom URL option.
Available widget list can be fetched from:

Test Plan: New tests, and updated old ones.

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.

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.

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).
