90d3ee037a (core) User language switcher
Summary:
New language selector on the Account page for logged-in users.
New icon for switching language for an anonymous user.

For anonymous users, language is stored in a cookie grist_user_locale.
Language is stored in user settings for authenticated users and takes
precedence over what is stored in the cookie.

9628253fd8 (core) Adding new column in users table "ref" with unique identifier.
Summary:
There is a new column in users table called ref (user reference).
It holds user's unique reference number that can be used for features
that require some kind of ownership logic (like comments).

accd640078 (core) add a user.SessionID value for trigger formulas and granular access rules
Summary:
This makes a `user.SessionID` value available in information about the user, for use with trigger formulas and granular access rules. The ID should be constant within a browser session for anonymous user. For logged in users it simply reflects their user id.

This ID makes it possible to write access rules and trigger formulas that allow different anonymous users to create, view, and edit their own records in a document.

For example, you could have a brain-storming document for puns, and allow anyone to add to it (without logging in), letting people edit their own records, but not showing the records to others until they are approved by a moderator. Without something like this, we could only let anonymous people add one field of a record, and not have a secure way to let them edit that field or others in the same record.

Also adds a `user.IsLoggedIn` flag in passing.

Test Plan: Added a test, updated tests. The test added is a mini-moderation doc, don't use it for real because it allows users to edit their entries after a moderator has approved them.

f2f4fe0eca (core) Add LogMethods helper and use it for more JSON data in logs. Reduce unhelpful logging.
Summary:
- Sharing, Client, DocClients, HostingStorageManager all include available info.
- In HostingStorageManager, log numSteps and maxStepTimeMs, in case that helps
  debug SQLITE_BUSY problem.
- Replace some action-bundle logging with a JSON version aggregating some info.
- Skip logging detailed list of actions in production.

Test Plan: Tested manually by eyeballing log output in dev environment.

95cc2eb282 (core) read document as owner in pre-fork mode, if have sufficient access to it
Summary:
This tweaks pre-fork mode to make the user's experience a bit more seamless.
Pre-fork mode is where the user has opened a document with intent to
fork it, but actual forking (with allocation of a new document id)
is postponed until they make their first change.

The tweak makes the user an owner for granular access purposes, if
forking is permitted.  So data visible only to owners because of
access rules will be visible to them.  As always, any edits would
go to a separate new copy.

A remaining tricky corner is what to do about "View As" functionality
on forks.  Fork sharing cannot be controlled, so the "Users -> View As"
functionality isn't available.  Perhaps the "Users" button on a fork
could encourage doing a save-copy and inviting users, or offer some
dummy users?  In any case, this diff doesn't change anything with
that corner.

0c5f7cf0a7 (core) add SELF_HYPERLINK() function for generating links to the current document
Summary:
 * Adds a `SELF_HYPERLINK()` python function, with optional keyword arguments to set a label, the page, and link parameters.
 * Adds a `UUID()` python function, since using python's uuid.uuidv4 hits a problem accessing /dev/urandom in the sandbox.  UUID makes no particular quality claims since it doesn't use an audited implementation.  A difficult to guess code is convenient for some use cases that `SELF_HYPERLINK()` enables.

The canonical URL for a document is mutable, but older versions generally forward.  So for implementation simplicity the document url is passed it on sandbox creation and remains fixed throughout the lifetime of the sandbox.  This could and should be improved in future.

The URL is passed into the sandbox as a `DOC_URL` environment variable.

The code for creating the URL is factored out of `Notifier.ts`. Since the url is a function of the organization as well as the document, some rejiggering is needed to make that information available to DocManager.

On document imports, the new document is registered in the database slightly earlier now, in order to keep the procedure for constructing the URL in different starting conditions more homogeneous.

131fbbdb92 (core) check row-level permissions on incoming actions
Summary:
This improves support for access control on document modifications.  It adds:

   * Checking of create/remove/update access for row-level changes.
   * Use of `newRec` variable in formulas.

It is now possible to have distinct clients with read+write access to different rows of the same table.

This is another incremental step.  There are deficiencies in actions that include schema changes, and many other lacunae. But the overall flow is taking shape.

Access control is done at the DocAction level, requiring the sandbox to process the UserActions, and then be reverted if the action proves unlawful.  This could be optimized away in many simple and important cases, but I'm not sure it is possible to avoid in general.

c879393a8e (core) support adding user characteristic tables for granular ACLs
Summary:
This is a prototype for expanding the conditions that can be used in granular ACLs.

When processing ACLs, the following variables (called "characteristics") are now available in conditions:
 * UserID
 * Email
 * Name
 * Access (owners, editors, viewers)

The set of variables can be expanded by adding a "characteristic" clause.  This is a clause which specifies:
 * A tableId
 * The name of an existing characteristic
 * A colId
The effect of the clause is to expand the available characteristics with all the columns in the table, with values taken from the record where there is a match between the specified characteristic and the specified column.

Existing clauses are generalized somewhat to demonstrate and test the use these variables. That isn't the main point of this diff though, and I propose to leave generalizing+systematizing those clauses for a future diff.

Issues I'm not dealing with here:
 * How clauses combine.  (The scope on GranularAccessRowClause is a hack to save me worrying about that yet).
 * The full set of matching methods we'll allow.
 * Refreshing row access in clients when the tables mentioned in characteristic tables change.
 * Full CRUD permission control.
 * Default rules (part of combination).
 * Reporting errors in access rules.

That said, with this diff it is possible to e.g. assign a City to editors by their email address or name, and have only rows for those Cities be visible in their client. Ability to modify those rows, and remain updates about them, remains under incomplete control.

45d2d5f897 (core) back-end support for tables that are accessible only by owners
Summary:
This makes it possible to serve a table or tables only to owners.

 * The _grist_ACLResources table is abused (temporarily) such that rows of the form `{colId: '~o', tableId}` are interpreted as meaning that `tableId` is private to owners.
 * Many websocket and api endpoints are updated to preserve the privacy of these tables.
 * In a document where some tables are private, a lot of capabilities are turned off for non-owners to avoid leaking info indirectly.
 * The client is tweaked minimally, to show '-' where a page with some private material would otherwise go.

No attempt is made to protect data from private tables pulled into non-private tables via formulas.

There are some known leaks remaining:
 * Changes to the schema of private tables are still broadcast to all clients (fixable).
 * Non-owner may be able to access snapshots or make forks or use other corners of API (fixable).
 * Changing name of table makes it public, since tableId in ACLResource is not updated (fixable).

Security will require some work, the attack surface is large.

526fda4eba (core) make user role available in ActiveDoc methods
Summary: This makes the user's role (owner/editor/viewer) available in ActiveDoc methods. No use of that information is made yet, other than to log it.  The bulk of the diff is getting a handle on the various ways the methods can be called, and systematizing it a bit more.  In passing, access control is added to broadcasts of document changes, so users who no longer have access to a document do not receive changes if they still have the document open.

Test Plan: existing tests pass; test for broadcast access control added
