6ac0bc3bbb (core) Implement exported functions without relying on ActiveDoc.docData
Summary:
For grist-static, we want to the data engine to be able to call external/exported JS functions directly,
rather than via the node 'server' living in another thread which requires synchronous communication hackery.

As a step in that direction, this diff changes the exported functions that we care about (guessColInfo and convertFromColumn)
to just using the top-level functions instead of relying on fields in ActiveDoc, namely docData.

For guessColInfo, this is done by directly passing the small amount of metadata that was previously retrieved from the DocData.

For convertFromColumn, disentangling DocData is a lot more complicated, so instead we construct a fresh DocData object using
the required metadata tables which are now passed in by the data engine.

Test Plan: Existing tests

603238e966 (core) Adds a UI panel for managing webhooks
Summary:
This adds a UI panel for managing webhooks. Work started by Cyprien Pindat. You can find the UI on a document's settings page. Main changes relative to Cyprien's demo:

  * Changed behavior of virtual table to be more consistent with the rest of Grist, by factoring out part of the implementation of on-demand tables.
  * Cell values that would create an error can now be denied and reverted (as for the rest of Grist).
  * Changes made by other users are integrated in a sane way.
  * Basic undo/redo support is added using the regular undo/redo stack.
  * The table list in the drop-down is now updated if schema changes.
  * Added a notification from back-end when webhook status is updated so constant polling isn't needed to support multi-user operation.
  *  Factored out webhook specific logic from general virtual table support.
  * Made a bunch of fixes to various broken behavior.
  * Added tests.

The code remains somewhat unpolished, and behavior in the presence of errors is imperfect in general but may be adequate for this case.

I assume that we'll soon be lifting the restriction on the set of domains that are supported for webhooks - otherwise we'd want to provide some friendly way to discover that list of supported domains rather than just throwing an error.

I don't actually know a lot about how the front-end works - it looks like tables/columns/fields/sections can be safely added if they have string ids that won't collide with bone fide numeric ids from the back end. Sneaky.

Contains a migration, so needs an extra reviewer for that.

add support for conversational state to assistance endpoint (#506)
* add support for conversational state to assistance endpoint

This refactors the assistance code somewhat, to allow carrying
along some conversational state. It extends the OpenAI-flavored
assistant to make use of that state to have a conversation.
The front-end is tweaked a little bit to allow for replies that
don't have any code in them (though I didn't get into formatting
such replies nicely).

Currently tested primarily through the runCompletion script,
which has been extended a bit to allow testing simulated
conversations (where an error is pasted in follow-up, or
an expected-vs-actual comparison).

65013331a3 (core) Fix imports into reference columns, and support two ways to import Numeric as a reference.
Summary:
- When importing into a Ref column, use lookupOne() formula for correct previews.
- When selecting columns to import into a Ref column, now a Numeric column like
  'Order' will produce two options: "Order" and "Order (as row ID)".
- Fixes exports to correct the formatting of visible columns. This addresses multiple bugs:
  1. Formatting wasn't used, e.g. a Ref showing a custom-formatted date was still presented as YYYY-MM-DD in CSVs.
  2. Ref showing a Numeric column was formatted as if a row ID (e.g. `Table1[1.5]`), which is very wrong.
- If importing into a table that doesn't have a primary view, don't switch page after import.

Refactorings:
- Generalize GenImporterView to be usable in more cases; removed near-duplicated logic from node side
- Some other refactoring in importing code.
- Fix field/column option selection in ValueParser
- Add NUM() helper to turn integer-valued floats into ints, useful for "as row ID" lookups.

Test Plan: Added test cases for imports into reference columns, updated Exports test fixtures.

b4cc519616 (core) Ignore leading whitespace in formulas, and strip out leading '=' sign users might add
Summary:
This addresses two issues, differently:
- For a formula with leading whitespace, like " 1+1", it is stored as is, but
  is fixed to work (it should be valid Python, and whitespace is only stripped out
  at parsing time to avoid intentation errors caused by the way it gets parsed)
- For a formula with a leading equals-sign ("="), it is stripped out on the
  client side before the formula is stored. Grist documentation uses leading
  "=" to indicate formulas (because UI shows an "=" icon), and Excel formulas
  actually contain the leading "=", so it is a common mistake to include it.

fb1332d529 (core) Fix bug with renaming when a formula uses a local name for a user table.
Summary:
When a formula used a local variable referring to a user table (which is
a global name), e.g. `myvar = MyTable; myvar.lookupOne(...)`, renaming
logic mistakenly used the inferred name (`MyTable`) in places where the
actual variable name (`myvar`) should have been used.

Additionally, we should not rename local variables, even if they match a
global name.

This fixes both issues.

Test Plan: Added a test case that checks that local variables aren't renamed.

Cyprien P
2b2e19c5b5 (core) Fix issue with summary update.
Summary:
The problem is that the implementation for a summary update was relying on type consistency to get columns (ie: matches agains colId and type).

Type consistency is an attempt at maintaining consistent type across same-named column for summaries of same table.

But the problem is that the consistency of types is NOT a strict guarantee or an invariant, more of a best-effort attempt (there are too many possible sequences of operations possible with renaming/adding/removing in summary tables and the underlying table).

With current implementation and with a document violating the type consistency, a summary table could end up with fields referencing columns to the former summary table (more detail below(1)). Which is a bad state (yields js errors on the client).

This diff fixes this issue by relaxing the type comparison when search for same-named column.

(1) __Below is a description of how a violation of type consistency could end-up in bad state document (example taken from the reported bug):__

> In this document, let's assume two summary tables `Table1 [by A]` and `Table1 [Totals]`. Let's also assume Table1 and `Table1 [Totals]` both have an `Amount(Numeric)` column, and that `Table1 [by A]` has one `Amount(Any)` column (violating the type consistency principle). Now when users wanted to change the `Table1 [Totals]` section to group by 'A', grist found that there is already a summary table with same grouping. But it couldn't find a matching column for `Amount(Numeric)` so it created a new one. Except that because there was still an `Amount(Any)` the new column was named `Amount2` which caused following code to ignore it and in particular forgetting to update it's corresponding section's field which was then pointing toward the column of a different table (which is bad).

Test Plan: Added python test.

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.

6dce083484 (core) add a GVISOR_USE_DEFAULT_USER flag to support different gvisor versions
Summary:
This is just a convenience for myself. I happen to have a version of
gvisor on my Linux dev machine that differs from what we use in our
containers. There's a small difference in user setup that only manifests
itself when importing files. Grist uses a directory readable only by
the creating user, created outside the container, and then accessed
within the container. For that to work, the user identities have to
line up exactly. This adds a flag I can set in my environment to make
things work. An alternative solution that doesn't require a flag
would be to make the temporary directories readable by other users,
but that seemed a bigger change than justified.

Ideally we'd make a very robust and easy to run sandbox for Linux
users, and I have ideas there for the future.

792565976a (core) Show example values in formula autocomplete
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.

1864b7ba5d (core) Add BulkAddOrUpdateRecord action for efficiency
Summary:
This diff adds a new `BulkAddOrUpdateRecord` user action which is what is sounds like:

- A bulk version of the existing `AddOrUpdateRecord` action.
- Much more efficient for operating on many records than applying many individual actions.
- Column values are specified as maps from `colId` to arrays of values as usual.
- Produces bulk versions of `AddRecord` and `UpdateRecord` actions instead of many individual actions.

Examples of users wanting to use something like `AddOrUpdateRecord` with large numbers of records:

- https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1651789710290879
- https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1660743493480119
- https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1660333148491559
- https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1663069291726159

I tested what made many `AddOrUpdateRecord` actions slow in the first place. It was almost entirely due to producing many individual `AddRecord` user actions. About half of that time was for processing the resulting `AddRecord` doc actions. Lookups and updates were not a problem. With these changes, the slowness is gone.

The Python user action implementation is more complex but there are no surprises. The JS API now groups `records` based on the keys of `require` and `fields` so that `BulkAddOrUpdateRecord` can be applied to each group.

Test Plan: Update and extend Python and DocApi tests.

56624c4a95 (core) Fix undo error for automatically removed rows, especially in summary tables
Summary:
Fixes a bug noted here: https://grist.slack.com/archives/C069RUP71/p1662564341132349

This bug could happen quite easily as follows:

1. Have a formula in a summary table such as `$group.amount`. Typically there's also a `SUM` but that's not essential.
2. Find a group with nonzero values of `amount`.
3. Delete all rows in that group in the source table. Typically that just means one row in a lonely group.
4. The summary table row is automatically deleted.
5. Try to undo. This raises an error about trying to update a non-existent summary table row.

I tried to account for this undo problem in https://phab.getgrist.com/D3489 by not saving the updated value for `$group` when it was found to be empty. The reason this was insufficient is that `$group.amount` is immediately invalidated anyway when the source row(s) are deleted (I think because that's just how dependency relations involving references work) *and* the calculated value of `$group.amount` changes even if `$group` doesn't. For example, `$group.amount` may have previously been `[100, 200]`. After deleting the rows, `$group.amount` becomes `[0, 0]`. Keeping `$group` unchanged prevents `$group.amount` from just being `[]`, but deleting the source rows means that the amounts become the numeric default `0` which is still a change. This change in value is then noted which leads to saving an undo action to update the summary table record. All this happens in step 3 above, and the summary record is only deleted after that point.

This diff removes that special handling for `group` and instead adds a more general fix to `action_summary.py`. This inserts undo actions for deleted rows at the beginning of the undo list rather than at the end, which was already done for deleted tables and columns.

42afb17e36 (core) Run and test imports only in Python 3, upgrade openpyxl, fix weird date handling
Summary:
Python 2 only needs to be supported for the sake of old documents and formulas. This doesn't apply to the separate sandboxes that parse files for imports. Using Python 3 only allows using newer libraries and library versions. In particular, the latest version of openpyxl doesn't support Python 2. This will also make it easier to make other similar changes in the future, such as replacing messytables with a modern library. See https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1661261829343999?thread_ts=1661260442.837959&cid=C0234CPPXPA

The latest openpyxl is better at handling a particular edge case with broken dates in Excel, but still doesn't quite do what we want, so we monkeypatch it. Discussion: https://grist.slack.com/archives/C02EGJ1FUCV/p1661440851911869?thread_ts=1661154219.515549&cid=C02EGJ1FUCV

Setting `preferredPythonVersion` to '3' in SafePythonComponent ensures that JS always creates import sandboxes that use Python 3. Within Python, a module used by all imports will raise an error in Python 2. Python unit tests of imports are now only run in Python 3, using the `load_tests` protocol of `unittest`.

Test Plan: Mostly existing tests. Added another strange date to the Excel fixture.

42060df29a (core) Formula autocomplete improvements for references and lookups
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.

b416a5c4b1 (core) Fix error when updating summary table formulas after rename
Summary:
Formulas in summary tables were being associated with the source table for automatic updating. When a table/column was renamed such that the formula needed to update to match, it would look for a column with the same colId but in the source table. Such a column might not exist which would lead to an error, or if it existed then the update would be wrong.

This association was created while building formulas to display in the code view in a nested `_Summary` class, it didn't need to exist at all. So this diff simply prevents the association from being created.

An example of this being a problem is here: https://community.getgrist.com/t/last-field-circularreferror-what-is-it/1114/4 . Using `MIN` on a column of dates would return 0 (the default) which gets converted to 1970-01-01. Users have to use `min` instead, which is confusing, and doesn't work when some values are empty.

This diff lets the functions operate on date and datetime values. A mixture of dates and datetimes is allowed, even though these cannot usually be compared in Python. Mixing dates and numbers will raise an exception.

b8486dcdba (core) Nice summary table IDs
Summary:
Changes auto-generated summary table IDs from e.g. `GristSummary_6_Table1` to `Table1_summary_A_B` (meaning `Table1` grouped by `A` and `B`). This makes it easier to write formulas involving summary tables, make API requests, understand logs, etc.

Because these don't encode the source table ID as reliably as before, `decode_summary_table_name` now uses the summary table schema info, not just the summary table ID. Specifically, it looks at the type of the `group` column, which is `RefList:<source table id>`.

Renaming a source table renames the summary table as before, and now renaming a groupby column renames the summary table as well.

Conflicting table names are resolved in the usual way by adding a number at the end, e.g. `Table1_summary_A_B2`. These summary tables are not automatically renamed when the disambiguation is no longer needed.

A new migration renames all summary tables to the new scheme, and updates formulas using summary tables with a simple regex.

Test Plan:
Updated many tests to use the new style of name.

Added new Python tests to for resolving conflicts when renaming source tables and groupby columns.

Added a test for the migration, including renames in formulas.

dd2eadc86e (core) Speed up and upgrade build.
Summary:
- Upgrades to build-related packages:
  - Upgrade typescript, related libraries and typings.
  - Upgrade webpack, eslint; add tsc-watch, node-dev, eslint_d.

- Build organization changes:
  - Build webpack from original typescript, transpiling only; with errors still
    reported by a background tsc watching process.

- Typescript-related changes:
  - Reduce imports of AWS dependencies (very noticeable speedup)
  - Avoid auto-loading global @types
  - Client code is now built with isolatedModules flag (for safe transpilation)
  - Use allowJs to avoid copying JS files manually.

- Linting changes
  - Enhance Arcanist ESLintLinter to run before/after commands, and set up to use eslint_d
  - Update eslint config, and include .eslintignore to avoid linting generated files.
  - Include a bunch of eslint-prompted and eslint-generated fixes
  - Add no-unused-expression rule to eslint, and fix a few warnings about it

- Other items:
  - Refactor cssInput to avoid circular dependency
  - Remove a bit of unused code, libraries, dependencies

Test Plan: No behavior changes, all existing tests pass. There are 30 tests fewer reported because `test_gpath.py` was removed (it's been unused for years)

9fffb491f9 (core) External requests
Summary:
Adds a Python function `REQUEST` which makes an HTTP GET request. Behind the scenes it:

- Raises a special exception to stop trying to evaluate the current cell and just keep the existing value.
- Notes the request arguments which will be returned by `apply_user_actions`.
- Makes the actual request in NodeJS, which sends back the raw response data in a new action `RespondToRequests` which reevaluates the cell(s) that made the request.
- Wraps the response data in a class which mimics the `Response` class of the `requests` library.

In certain cases, this asynchronous flow doesn't work and the sandbox will instead synchronously call an exported JS method:

- When reevaluating a single cell to get a formula error, the request is made synchronously.
- When a formula makes multiple requests, the earlier responses are retrieved synchronously from files which store responses as long as needed to complete evaluating formulas. See https://grist.slack.com/archives/CL1LQ8AT0/p1653399747810139

Test Plan: Added Python and nbrowser tests.

1c89d08ea3 (core) Add a row to summary tables grouped by list column(s) corresponding to empty lists
Summary:
Adds some special handling to summary table and lookup logic:

- Source rows with empty choicelists/reflists get a corresponding summary row with an empty string/reference when grouping by that column, instead of excluding them from any group
- Adds a new `QueryOperation` 'empty' in the client which is used in `LinkingState`, `QuerySet`, and `recursiveMoveToCursorPos` to match empty lists in source tables against falsy values in linked summary tables.
- Adds a new parameter `match_empty` to the Python `CONTAINS` function so that regular formulas can implement the same behaviour as summary tables. See https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1654030490932119
- Uses the new `match_empty` argument in the formula generated for the `group` column when detaching a summary table.

Test Plan: Updated and extended Python and nbrowser tests of summary tables grouped by choicelists to test for new behaviour with empty lists.

c5ebd7db3d (core) Add PEEK() function to bypass circular dependencies
Summary:
Adds a Python function `PEEK()` for use in formulas which temporarily sets a new attribute `Engine._peeking` which disables the `_use_node` method, preventing dependency tracking and allowing the given expression to use outdated values. This allows circumventing circular reference errors. It's particularly meant for trigger formulas although it works in normal formulas as well. The expression is wrapped in a `lambda` by `codebuilder` for lazy evaluation.

Discussion: https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1653571024031359

Test Plan: Added a Python unit test for circular trigger formulas using PEEK.

8ee23f5344 (core) Mark column changing actions as indirect when adding data to empty column
Summary:
Fixing https://gristlabs.getgrist.com/doc/check-ins/p/12#a1.s19.r1045.c19 :

> Problem: user creates fresh new empty column. Users with access to write to that column, but not modify schema, will not in fact be able to write into it (since on first data entry column type needs to change). Experience is confusing.

Refactored `enter_indirection` and `leave_indirection` to a single context manager method for use with `with` instead of `try/finally`.

Used the new method in `_ensure_column_accepts_data` around column changing actions converting empty column to data column.

Test Plan:
Updated a Python test, reflecting that the correct actions are now marked as direct=False.

Tested manually that I can now add data to a blank column without schema access, while I wasn't able to before, and I still can't make other schema changes.

cf23a2d1ee (core) add GVISOR_LIMIT_MEMORY to cap memory available in sandbox
Summary:
This allows limiting the memory available to documents in the sandbox when gvisor is used. If memory limit is exceeded, we offer to open doc in recovery mode. Recovery mode is tweaked to open docs with tables in "ondemand" mode, which will generally take less memory and allow for deleting rows.

The limit is on the size of the virtual address space available to the sandbox (`RLIMIT_AS`), which in practice appears to function as one would want, and is the only practical option. There is a documented `RLIMIT_RSS` limit to `specifies the limit (in bytes) of the process's resident set (the number of virtual pages resident in RAM)` but this is no longer enforced by the kernel (neither the host nor gvisor).

When the sandbox runs out of memory, there are many ways it can fail. This diff catches all the ones I saw, but there could be more.

Test Plan: added tests

e6983e9209 (core) add machinery for self-managed flavor of Grist
Summary:
Currently, we have two ways that we deliver Grist. One is grist-core,
which has simple defaults and is relatively easy for third parties to
deploy. The second is our internal build for our SaaS, which is the
opposite. For self-managed Grist, a planned paid on-premise version
of Grist, I adopt the following approach:

 * Use the `grist-core` build mechanism, extending it to accept an
   overlay of extra code if present.
 * Extra code is supplied in a self-contained `ext` directory, with
   an `ext/app` directory that is of same structure as core `app`
   and `stubs/app`.
 * The `ext` directory also contains information about extra
   node dependencies needed beyond that of `grist-core`.
 * The `ext` directory is contained within our monorepo rather than
   `grist-core` since it may contain material not under the Apache
   license.

Docker builds are achieved in our monorepo by using the `--build-context`
functionality to add in `ext` during the regular `grist-core` build:

```
docker buildx build --load -t gristlabs/grist-ee --build-context=ext=../ext .
```

Incremental builds in our monorepo are achieved with the `build_core.sh` helper,
like:

```
buildtools/build_core.sh /tmp/self-managed
cd /tmp/self-managed
yarn start
```

The initial `ext` directory contains material for snapshotting to S3.
If you build the docker image as above, and have S3 access, you can
do something like:

```
docker run -p 8484:8484 --env GRIST_SESSION_SECRET=a-secret \
  --env GRIST_DOCS_S3_BUCKET=grist-docs-test \
  --env GRIST_DOCS_S3_PREFIX=self-managed \
  -v $HOME/.aws:/root/.aws -it gristlabs/grist-ee
```

This will start a version of Grist that is like `grist-core` but with
S3 snapshots enabled. To release this code to `grist-core`, it would
just need to move from `ext/app` to `app` within core.

I tried a lot of ways of organizing self-managed Grist, and this was
what made me happiest. There are a lot of trade-offs, but here is what
I was looking for:

 * Only OSS-code in grist-core. Adding mixed-license material there
   feels unfair to people already working with the repo. That said,
   a possible future is to move away from our private monorepo to
   a public mixed-licence repo, which could have the same relationship
   with grist-core as the monorepo has.
 * Minimal differences between self-managed builds and one of our
   existing builds, ideally hewing as close to grist-core as possible
   for ease of documentation, debugging, and maintenance.
 * Ideally, docker builds without copying files around (the new
   `--build-context` functionality made that possible).
 * Compatibility with monorepo build.

Expressing dependencies of the extra code in `ext` proved tricky to
do in a clean way. Yarn/npm fought me every step of the way - everything
related to optional dependencies was unsatisfactory in some respect.
Yarn2 is flexible but smells like it might be overreach. In the end,
organizing to install non-core dependencies one directory up from the
main build was a good simple trick that saved my bacon.

This diff gets us to the point of building `grist-ee` images conveniently,
but there isn't a public repo people can go look at to see its source. This
could be generated by taking `grist-core`, adding the `ext` directory
to it, and pushing to a distinct repository. I'm not in a hurry to do that,
since a PR to that repo would be hard to sync with our monorepo and
`grist-core`. Also, we don't have any licensing text ready for the `ext`
directory. So leaving that for future work.

6c90de4d62 (core) Switch excel import parsing from messytables+xlrd to openpyxl, and ignore empty rows
Summary:
Use openpyxl instead of messytables (which used xlrd internally) in import_xls.py.

Skip empty rows since excel files can easily contain huge numbers of them.

Drop support for xls files (which openpyxl doesn't support) in favour of the newer xlsx format.

Fix some details relating to python virtualenvs and dependencies, as Jenkins was failing to find new Python dependencies.

Test Plan: Mostly relying on existing tests. Updated various tests which referred to xls files instead of xlsx. Added a Python test for skipping empty rows.
