Dmitry S	51ff72c15e	(core) Faster builds all around. ... Summary: Building: - Builds no longer wait for tsc for either client, server, or test targets. All use esbuild which is very fast. - Build still runs tsc, but only to report errors. This may be turned off with `SKIP_TSC=1` env var. - Grist-core continues to build using tsc. - Esbuild requires ES6 module semantics. Typescript's esModuleInterop is turned on, so that tsc accepts and enforces correct usage. - Client-side code is watched and bundled by webpack as before (using esbuild-loader) Code changes: - Imports must now follow ES6 semantics: `import * as X from ...` produces a module object; to import functions or class instances, use `import X from ...`. - Everything is now built with isolatedModules flag. Some exports were updated for it. Packages: - Upgraded browserify dependency, and related packages (used for the distribution-building step). - Building the distribution now uses esbuild's minification. babel-minify is no longer used. Test Plan: Should have no behavior changes, existing tests should pass, and docker image should build too.

Alex Hall	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.
