b8486dcdba (core) Nice summary table IDs
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.

Test Plan:
Updated many tests to use the new style of name.

Added new Python tests to for resolving conflicts when renaming source tables and groupby columns.

Added a test for the migration, including renames in formulas.

0829ae67ef (core) Fixing hidden col missing after summary update
Summary:
Updating one summary groupby columns is handle by the
`update_summary_section`. That routine is in charge of creating a new
summary table and transfer all possible columns from old table to the
new one, so that the new table appear to change only the minimum to
users.

The problem that this diff address is that, the logic to decide what columns we need to keep, only applies to the visible
fields and ignore the hidden columns, causing all hidden columns to be removed. This diff, simply
changes that routine to address all columns.

the mutliple fixes on the test_summary2.py result from a change of
ordering of columns: the culprit is the `group` columns, which is by
default a hidden columns and that had to be explicitely added back to
the new summary table. It is now transferred automatically, like other
columns, which does cause a little change of ordering on the db. This
should not result in any display order changes for the users.

599545fb11 (core) Fuller guessing of type and options when adding first data to blank columns
Summary:
Adds `common/ValueGuesser.ts` with logic for guessing column type and widget options (only for dates/datetimes) from an array of strings, and converting the strings to the guessed type in a lossless manner, so that converting back to Text gives the original values.

Changes `_ensure_column_accepts_data` in Python to call an exported JS method using the new logic where possible.

Test Plan: Added `test/common/ValueGuesser.ts` to unit test the core guessing logic and a DocApi end-to-end test for what happens to new columns.

fa9e6eee88 (core) Create an extra raw data widget when creating a table
Summary: This is the first step towards raw data views, merely adding metadata without any UI. Every 'normal' table now has a widget referenced by `rawViewSectionRef`. It has no parent view/page and cannot actually be viewed for now. The widget is created during the AddTable user action, and the migration creates a widget for existing tables.

Test Plan: Many tests had to be updated, especially tests that listed all view sections and/or fields.
