Summary:
This adds support for bundling custom widgets with the Grist app, as follows:
* Adds a new `widgets` component to plugins mechanism.
* When a set of widgets is provided in a plugin, the html/js/css assets for those widgets are served on the existing untrusted user content port.
* Any bundled `grist-plugin-api.js` will be served with the Grist app's own version of that file. It is important that bundled widgets not refer to https://docs.getgrist.com for the plugin js, since they must be capable of working offline.
* The logic for configuring that port is updated a bit.
* I removed the CustomAttachedView class in favor of applying settings of bundled custom widgets more directly, without modification on view.
Any Grist installation via docker will need an extra step now, since there is an extra port that needs exposing for full functionality. I did add a `GRIST_TRUST_PLUGINS` option for anyone who really doesn't want to do this, and would prefer to trust the plugins and have them served on the same port.
Actually making use of bundling will be another step. It'll be important to mesh it with our SaaS's use of APP_STATIC_URL for serving most static assets.

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:
This cleans up a few things about SELF_HYPERLINK urls:
* Use `urlId` rather than `docId`.
* Correctly merge personal org subdomain.
* In dev environment, use clearer port number.

Summary: This removes some old metric code. There's also a user preference dialog that has a single option (whether to allow metrics) this is left in place with a dummy option. It could be ripped out as well, probably.

Summary: This moves enough server material into core to run a home server. The data engine is not yet incorporated (though in manual testing it works when ported).
