Summary:
Attachments are a special case for granular access control. A user is now allowed to read a given attachment if they have read access to a cell containing its id. So when a user writes to a cell in an attachment column, it is important that they can only write the ids of cells to which they have access. This diff allows a user to add an attachment id in a cell if:
* The user already has access to that a attachment via some existing cell, or
* The user recently updated the attachment, or
* The attachment change is from an undo/redo of a previous action attributed to that user

- Each comment is connected to a particular cell (hence the generic name of the table)
- Access level works naturally for records stored in this table
-- User can add/read comments for cells he can see
-- User can't update/remove comments that he doesn't own, but he can delete them by removing cells (rows/columns)
-- Anonymous users can't see comments at all.
- Each comment can have replies (but replies can't have more replies)
Comments are hidden by default, they can be enabled by COMMENTS=true env variable.
Some things for follow-up
- Avatars, currently the user's profile image is not shown or retrieved from the server
- Virtual rendering for comments list in creator panel. Currently, there is a limit of 200 comments.

This makes two small tweaks based on a user's questions about sharing
sites publicly for a self-managed installation:
* The support user `support@getgrist.com` is made configurable with
`GRIST_SUPPORT_EMAIL`. This came up because only the support user
can share material with the special "everyone" user. This restriction
was added to avoid spam.
* Regardless of public sharing settings, for our SaaS we had
decided not to list public sites to anonymous users. That is
somewhat a question of taste, so a `GRIST_LIST_PUBLIC_SITES` flag
is added to override this choice.
Public sharing isn't in a well polished state, and this diff doesn't

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.

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:

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.

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

Summary:
Two summary table widgets that share a source table and have compatible groupby columns can be filter linked. This diff fixes a bug where this linking is broken when the source table is hidden by access rules. The source table data isn't needed for the linking, but its metadata is, and that metadata is censored by GranularAccess. To deal with this:
- `LinkConfig._assertValid` allows blank `tableId`s specifically for linking two summary tables.
- `LinkingState.filterColValues` gets the `colId`s of groupby columns from the summary table columns rather than the source table.
A closely related problem is that the titles of summary tables are incomplete when the source table is hidden, e.g. they just say `[by A]` instead of `Table1 [by A]`. To fix this, the raw view sections of source tables are 'uncensored' in GranularAccess.
Initially I also planned to uncensor the tableId of the source table, which seemed like a better and more general fix for the blank tableId problem. But several parts of client code use blank tableIds to know that a table should be hidden, so they were left as is.
Test Plan: Added an nbrowser test for summary table linking, and a server test for uncensoring the raw view section in GranularAccess.

This adds rudimentary support for opening certain SQLite files in Grist.
If you have a file such as `landing.db` in Grist, you can convert it to Grist format by doing (either in monorepo or grist-core):
```
yarn run cli -h
yarn run cli sqlite -h
yarn run cli sqlite gristify landing.db
```
The file is now openable by Grist. To actually do so with the regular Grist server, you'll need to either import it, or convert some doc you don't care about in the `samples/` directory to be a soft link to it (and then force a reload).
This implementation is a rudimentary experiment. Here are some awkwardnesses:
* Only tables that happen to have a column called `id`, and where the column happens to be an integer, can be opened directly with Grist as it is today. That could be generalized, but it looked more than a Gristathon's worth of work, so I instead used SQLite views.
* Grist will handle tables that start with an uncapitalized letter a bit erratically. You can successfully add columns, for example, but removing them will cause sadness - Grist will rename the table in a confused way.
* I didn't attempt to deal with column names with spaces etc (though views could deal with those).
* I haven't tried to do any fancy type mapping.
* Columns with constraints can make adding new rows impossible in Grist, since Grist requires that a row can be added with just a single cell set.

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.

Summary:
When a user requests to read the contents of an attachment, only allow the request if there exists a cell in an attachment column that contains the attachment and which they have read access to.
This does not cover:
* Granular write access for attachments. In particular, a user who can write to any attachment column should be considered to have full read access to all attachment columns, currently.
* Access control of attachment metadata such as name and format.
The implementation uses a sql query that requires a scan, and some notes on how this could be optimized in future. The web client was updated to specify the cell to check for access, and performance seemed fine in casual testing on a doc with 1000s of attachments. I'm not sure how performance would hold up as the set of access rules grows as well.

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.

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

For self-hosted Grist, forward auth has proven useful, where
some proxy wrapped around Grist manages authentication, and
passes on user information to Grist in a trusted header.
The current implementation is adequate when Grist is the
only place where the user logs in or out, but is confusing
otherwise (see https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-core/issues/207).
Here we take some steps to broaden the scenarios Grist's
forward auth support can be used with:
* When a trusted header is present and is blank, treat
that as the user not being logged in, and don't look
any further for identity information. Specifically,
don't look in Grist's session information.
* Add a `GRIST_IGNORE_SESSION` flag to entirely prevent
Grist from picking up identity information from a cookie,
in order to avoid confusion between multiple login methods.
* Add tests for common scenarios.

* Adds tsconfig-base-ext.json - that was the only intended change
* Unrelated: Forces all creation of connections to the home db through a new `getOrCreateConnection` method which changes the `busy_timeout` if using Sqlite. This was an attempt to fix random "database is locked" test failures. I believe multiple connections to the home db as an sqlite file do not happen in self-hosted Grist (where there is a single node process) or in our SaaS (where the database is in postgres). It does affect Grist started using `devServerMain.ts` (where multiple processes accessing same database are started) or various test configurations when extra database connections are opened.
* Unrelated: I added a `busy_timeout` for session storage, when it uses Sqlite. Again, I don't believe this affects self-hosted Grist or our SaaS.
* Tweaked a `BillingDiscount` test that looked perhaps vulnerable to a stripe request stalling.
I can't be sure my tweaks actually help, since I didn't succeed in replicating the failures. Update: looks like the "locked" error can still happen :(

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.

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.
