Summary:
- Added a new special page for viewing raw data widgets:
- Implemented in DataTables.ts
- Accessible only via the special URL path `/p/data`
- Future diffs should make this page prettier and easily accessible
- Shows a list of user tables
- Clicking on a table name shows its `rawViewSection` by setting `GristDoc.viewModel.activeSectionId`. Note that in this case `GristDoc.viewModel` is an empty record, so this is a bit of a hack, but it works well and causes no known issues.
- Added `ViewSectionRec.isRaw` to know if the record represents a raw data widget.
- Added various restrictions in the UI for raw data widgets:
- 'Delete widget' is disabled in the 3-dot widget menu.
- Prevent hiding columns:
- "Hide column" in the column context menu is disabled
- The "VISIBLE/HIDDEN COLUMNS" section of the right panel > Table > Widget is hidden
- The toggle bar isn't configurable to ensure that users know when raw data is filtered:
- The filter bar always shows if and only if some filters are present
- "Toggle Filter Bar" is hidden in:
- Right panel > Table > Sort & Filter
- The sort/filter menu next to the three-dot menu for widgets.
- Other restrictions in the right panel:
- In the Column tab:
- 'Use separate settings' is disabled
- In the Table tab:
- In the Widget subtab:
- 'Change Widget' is hidden
- In the Data subtab:
- 'Edit Data Selection' is hidden
- 'SELECT BY' is hidden
Test Plan: Tested manually. The behaviour of raw data widgets may still change and they aren't easily visible to users yet.

Summary:
Previously, ref/reflist columns were formatted entirely based on their visible column, since they received values from the visible or display columns rather than the actual row IDs. This creates `ReferenceFormatter` and `ReferenceListFormatter` which still delegate most of the formatting work to a visible column formatter but fix a few issues:
- ReferenceList columns now actually use the options (e.g. date format) of the visible column to format their elements. Previously they were formatted generically because the visible column formatter wasn't expecting a list.
- Invalid references aren't formatted with an `#Invalid Ref` prefix.
- When the ref column displays the Row ID, it doesn't have a visible or display column. Previously this led to the references being formatted as just numbers in most cases, with special code in the widget to display them like `Table1[2]`. Now they are consistently formatted in that style throughout.
Test Plan: Updated existing tests.

Summary:
Some things (like rendering cells) use the `visibleCol` for `createFormatter`, while other things (like `CopySelection`) used the `displayCol`. For references, the display column has type Any and doesn't know about the original formatting. This resulted in formatting being lost when copying from reference columns even though formatting was preserved when copying from the original (visible) column which looked identical. This diff fixes this and ensures that `createFormatter` is always used with the `visibleCol`. This was agreed on in https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1639571321043000
Additionally:
- Replaces the functions `createVisibleColFormatter` computed properties `visibleColFormatter` as suggested by a `TODO`.
- Extracts common code from `createVisibleColFormatter` in `ColumnRec` and `ViewFieldRec`
Test Plan: Fixed a test in CopyPaste which displayed the previous inconsistent behaviour.

Addresses several issues:
- Error 'Cannot modify summary group-by column' when changing Text ->
ChoiceList in the presence of summary tables.
- Error 'ModifyColumn in unexpected position' when changing ChoiceList -> Text
in the presence of summary tables.
- Double-evaluation of trigger formulas in some cases.
Fixes include:
- Fixed verification that summary group-by columns match the underlying ones,
and added comments to explain.
- Avoid updating non-metadata lookups after each doc-action (early lookups
generated extra actions to populate summary tables, causing the 'ModifyColumn
in unexpected position' bug)
- When updating formulas, do update lookups first.
- Made a client-side tweak to avoid a JS error in case of some undos.
Solution to reduce lookups is based on https://phab.getgrist.com/D3069?vs=on&id=12445,
and tests for double-evaluation of trigger formulas are taken from there.

Added ChoiceListParser capable of parsing JSON, CSVs, and other strings containing user-configured choices (e.g. separated by spaces)
I got a little carried away here. It works, and I can't think of any bugs, but it's complicated enough that there could be hidden edge cases or difficulties maintaining it in the future. The advantage of the current method is that it should work well for ambiguous or poorly formatted inputs, e.g. choices separated only by spaces or choices containing commas which are not escaped/quoted properly. The code can be vastly simplified if we don't try to support that and require that users paste proper JSON or CSVs.

This diff brings in the new welcome tour. It builds upon `client/ui/OnBoardingPopup` that was committed to that purposes. Per this diff, the tour is accessible behind a flag and won't be visible to user: few caveats listed below needs to be adressed first.
This diff also brings few changes to onboarding module.
- allow to refer to element with selector
- usually dynamic selection of element sounds useful for when the
element does not exist yet when the tour starts. But the actual
reason when add it here, is to allow selecting the first cell.
- if the selector yields undefined (missing element), the popup
is simply skipped
- got rid of the internal registry to link between popup contents
and popup options. All is now define in the same interface. Registry
overall felt overkill and not needed.
- adds an option to show message as a simple modal that is centered
on the screen
This diff also brings the new welcome tour and hide it behind a flag
CAVEATS that need to be addressed in follow up commit:
- The url needs cleanup, #repeat-welcome-tour sticks to it and so even when navigating to home page. This could eventually become an issue: if user opens another document it would starts the onboarding tour again.
- For now you have to manually make sure the right panel is opened with the Column tab selected before starting the tour.
- On boarding tours were not designed with mobile support in mind. So probably a good idea to disable.
- Backend support needs to be done (persistence of first time user).
Test Plan:
Updated `projects/OnBoardingPopup` and adds new `nbrowser/welcomeTour`
To launch the tour:
- open any document
- open manually the right panel and the field tab
- append the flag `#repeat-welcome-tour` at the end of the url in the url bar and reload the page
