534615dd50 (core) Update logging in sandbox code, and log tracebacks as single log messages.
Summary:
- Replace logger module by the standard module 'logging'.
- When a log message from the sandbox includes newlines (e.g. for tracebacks),
  keep those lines together in the Node log message.

  Previously each line was a different message, making it difficult to view
  tracebacks, particularly in prod where each line becomes a separate message
  object.

- Fix assorted lint errors.

Test Plan: Added a test for the log-line splitting and escaping logic.

add a pyodide-based "sandbox" flavor (#437)
This adds a new `GRIST_SANDBOX_FLAVOR=pyodide` option where the
version of Python used for the data engine is wasm, and so can
be run by node like the rest of the back end. It still runs as
a separate process.

There are a few small version changes made to packages to avoid
various awkwardnesses present in the current versions. All existing
tests pass.

This is very experimental. To use, you'll need something with
a bash shell and make. First do:
```
cd sandbox/pyodide
make setup           # README.md and Makefile have details
cd ..
```

Then running Grist as:
```
GRIST_SANDBOX_FLAVOR=pyodide yarn start
```
should work. Adding a formula with content:
```
import sys; return sys.version
```
should return a different Python version than other sandboxes.

The motivation for this work is to have a form of sandboxing
that will work on Windows for Grist Electron (for Linux we have
gvisor/runsc, for Mac we have sandbox-exec, but I haven't found
anything comparable for Windows).

It also brings a back-end-free version of Grist a bit closer, for
use-cases where that would make sense - such as serving a report
(in the form of a Grist document) on a static site.

4222f1ed32 (core) communicate with sandbox via standard pipes
Summary:
This switches to using stdin/stdout for RPC calls to the sandbox, rather than specially allocated side channels. Plain text error information remains on stderr.

The motivation for the change is to simplify use of sandboxes, some of which support extra file descriptors and some of which don't.

The new style of communication is made the default, but I'm not committed to this, just that it be easy to switch to if needed. It is possible I'll need to switch the communication method again in the near future.

One reason not to make this default would be windows support, which is likely broken since stdin/stdout are by default in text mode.

Test Plan: existing tests pass

84ddbc448b (core) Add test_replay for easily replaying data sent to the sandbox purely within python
Summary:
Run JS with a value for SANDBOX_BUFFERS_DIR, then run test_replay in python with the same value to replay just the python code.

See test_replay.py for more info.

Test Plan:
Record some data, e.g. `SANDBOX_BUFFERS_DIR=manual npm start` or `SANDBOX_BUFFERS_DIR=server ./test/testrun.sh server`.

Then run `SANDBOX_BUFFERS_DIR=server python -m unittest test_replay` from within `core/sandbox/grist` to replay the input from the JS.

Sample of the output will look like this:

```
Checking /tmp/sandbox_buffers/server/2021-06-16T15:13:59.958Z
True
Checking /tmp/sandbox_buffers/server/2021-06-16T15:16:37.170Z
True
Checking /tmp/sandbox_buffers/server/2021-06-16T15:14:22.378Z
True
```
