* allow Grist front-end to function when location history is unavailable
When the Grist front-end is embedded in an iframe, using a srcdoc
attribute, history.pushState and similar methods are unavailable.
Currently, that makes it impossible to navigate between Grist pages,
since an access error is thrown (behavior may be browser dependent).
With this change, navigation succeeds.
* give unrelated possibly slow test a little more time
Summary:
Fixes a problem reported here: https://community.getgrist.com/t/exporting-the-records-in-a-linked-view/2556/4
The download CSV/Excel link now contains an additional `linkingFilter` URL parameter containing JSON-encoded `filters` and `operations`. This object is originally created in the frontend in `LinkingState`, and previously it was only used internally in the frontend. It would make its way via `QuerySetManager` to `QuerySet.getFilterFunc` where the actual filtering logic happened. Now most of that logic has been moved to a similar function in `common`. The new function works with a new interface `ColumnGettersByColId` which abstract over the different ways data is accessed in the client and server in this context. There's no significant new logic in the diff, just refactoring and wiring.
Test Plan: Expanded two `nbrowser/SelectBy*.ts` test suites to also check the contents of a downloaded CSV in different linking scenarios.

There's a little nest of SelectBy tests that sometimes fail.
They are the only tests with an import of a helper function from
an other file that contains tests. Such imports have caused trouble
with mocha in the past. I'm not sure if that is the case now, but
I'd like to eliminate it as a possibility.
Summary:
- Preserving cursor position when linked state is removed.
- Moving linking tests to grist core.
- Disabling yarn offline mirror for grist-core. This helps testing grist-core when it is imported as a submodule.
- Moving one test for linked section from ReferenceColumns.ts to RightPanelSelectBy.ts.
Test Plan: Updated
