Context:
On self-hosted instances, some places in the code rely on the fact that we resolves public domains while being behind reverse proxies. This leads to cases where features are not available, such as the "Duplicate document" one.
Bugs that are solved - n self-hosted instances:
Impossible to open templates and tutorials right after having converted them;
Impossible to submit forms since version 1.1.13;
Impossible to restore a previous version of a document (snapshot);
Impossible to copy a document;
Solution:
Introduce the APP_HOME_INTERNAL_URL env variable, which is quite the same as APP_DOC_INTERNAL_URL except that it may point to any home worker;
Make /api/worker/:assignmentId([^/]+)/?* return not only the doc worker public url but also the internal one, and adapt the call points like fetchDocs;
Ensure that the home and doc worker internal urls are trusted by trustOrigin;

The motivation for supporting an alternative to WebSockets is that while all browsers supported by Grist offer native WebSocket support, some networking environments do not allow WebSocket traffic.
Engine.IO is used as the underlying implementation of HTTP long polling. The Grist client will first attempt a regular WebSocket connection, using the same protocol and endpoints as before, but fall back to long polling using Engine.IO if the WebSocket connection fails.
Include these changes:
- CORS websocket requests are now rejected as a stronger security measure. This shouldn’t affect anything in practice; but previously it could be possible to make unauthenticated websocket requests from another origin.
- GRIST_HOST variable no longer affects CORS responses (also should not affect anything in practice, as it wasn't serving a useful purpose)
Summary:
This gives a mechanism for controlling access control within a document that is distinct from (though implemented with the same machinery as) granular access rules.
It was hard to find a good way to insert this that didn't dissolve in a soup of complications, so here's what I went with:
* When reading rules, if there are shares, extra rules are added.
* If there are shares, all rules are made conditional on a "ShareRef" user property.
* "ShareRef" is null when a doc is accessed in normal way, and the row id of a share when accessed via a share.
There's no UI for controlling shares (George is working on it for forms), but you can do it by editing a `_grist_Shares` table in a document. Suppose you make a fresh document with a single page/table/widget, then to create an empty share you can do:
```
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.sendAction(['AddRecord', '_grist_Shares', null, {linkId: 'xyz', options: '{"publish": true}'}])
```
If you look at the home db now there should be something in the `shares` table:
```
$ sqlite3 -table landing.db "select * from shares"
+----+------------------------+------------------------+--------------+---------+
| id | key | doc_id | link_id | options |
+----+------------------------+------------------------+--------------+---------+
| 1 | gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K | 4qYuace1xP2CTcPunFdtan | xyz | ... |
+----+------------------------+------------------------+--------------+---------+
```
If you take the key from that (gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K in this case) and replace the document's urlId in its URL with `s.<key>` (in this case `s.gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K` then you can use the regular document landing page (it will be quite blank initially) or API endpoint via the share.
E.g. for me `http://localhost:8080/o/docs/s0gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K/share-inter-3` accesses the doc.
To actually share some material - useful commands:
```
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.getMetaTable('_grist_Views_section').getRecords()
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.sendAction(['UpdateRecord', '_grist_Views_section', 1, {shareOptions: '{"publish": true, "form": true}'}])
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.getMetaTable('_grist_Pages').getRecords()
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.sendAction(['UpdateRecord', '_grist_Pages', 1, {shareRef: 1}])
```
For a share to be effective, at least one page needs to have its shareRef set to the rowId of the share, and at least one widget on one of those pages needs to have its shareOptions set to {"publish": "true", "form": "true"} (meaning turn on sharing, and include form sharing), and the share itself needs {"publish": true} on its options.
I think special shares are kind of incompatible with public sharing, since by their nature (allowing access to all endpoints) they easily expose the docId, and changing that would be hard.

After adding a batch of new server tests, some interactions between
tests have shown up via a shared database. This sets an existing flag
for dealing with this problem, that is used during browser tests but
hadn't been needed before for server tests.
Summary:
Adds a new Record Card view section to each non-summary table, which can be from opened from various parts of the Grist UI to view and edit records in a popup card view.
Work is still ongoing, so the feature is locked away behind a flag; follow-up work is planned to finish up the implementation and add end-to-end tests.
Test Plan: Python and server tests. Browser tests will be included in a follow-up.

- 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.

Remove checking for unsubscribeKey while deleting webhook - only owner can delete webhook using DELETE endpoint. subscription key is still needed for _unsubscribe endpoint.
old _unsubscribe and _subscribe endpoints are still active and work as before - no changes there.

```
POST /api/docs/[docId]/webhooks

Expected response: WebhookId for each webhook posted:
```
{
"webhooks": [

},
{
"id": "d87a6402-cfd7-4822-878c-657308fcc8c3"
}
]
}
```
Deleting webhooks:
```
DELETE api/docs/[docId]/webhooks/[webhookId]
```
there is no payload in DELETE request. Therefore only one webhook can be deleted at once
Response:
```
{
"success": true

Summary:
This uses a newer version of mocha in grist-core so that tests can be run in parallel. That allows more tests to be moved without slowing things down overall. Tests moved are venerable browser tests; only the ones that "just work" or worked without too much trouble to are moved, in order to keep the diff from growing too large. Will wrestle with more in follow up.
Parallelism is at the file level, rather than the individual test.
The newer version of mocha isn't needed for grist-saas repo; tests are parallelized in our internal CI by other means. I've chosen to allocate files to workers in a cruder way than our internal CI, based on initial characters rather than an automated process. The automated process would need some reworking to be compatible with mocha running in parallel mode.
Test Plan: this diff was tested first on grist-core, then ported to grist-saas so saas repo history will correctly track history of moved files.

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.

Perform some refactoring to allow code reuse from endpoint allowing to _subscribe and _unsubscribe webhooks.
One aspect of webhook is that url are stored in the home db while the rest of the fields (tableRef, isReadyColRef, ...) are stored in sqlite. So care must be taken when updating fields, to properly rollback if anything should fail.

Summary:
- New /webhooks event that lists all webhooks in a document (available for owners),
- Monitoring webhooks usage and saving it in memory or Redis,
- Loosening _usubscribe API endpoint, so that the information returned from the /webhook endpoint is enough to unsubscribe,
- Owners can remove webhook without the unsubscribe key.
The endpoint lists all webhooks that are registered in a document, not just webhooks from a single table.
There are two status fields. First for the webhook, second for the last request attempt.
Webhook can have 5 statuses: 'idle', 'sending', 'retrying', 'postponed', 'error', which roughly describes what the
sendLoop is currently doing. The 'error' status describes a situation when all request attempts failed and the queue needs
to be drained, so some requests were dropped.
The last request status can only be: 'success', 'failure' or 'rejected'. Rejected means that the last batch was dropped because the
queue was too long.
