Summary:
- Adds a dependency moment-guess (https://github.com/apoorv-mishra/moment-guess) to guess date formats from strings. However the npm package is missing source maps which leads to an ugly warning, so currently using a fork until https://github.com/apoorv-mishra/moment-guess/pull/22 is resolved.
- Adds guessDateFormat using moment-guess to determine the best candidate date format. The logic may be refined for e.g. lossless imports where the stakes are higher, but for now we're just trying to make type conversions smoother.
- Uses guessDateFormat to guess widget options when changing column type to date or datetime.
- Uses the date format of the original column when possible instead of guessing.
- Fixes a bug where choices were guessed based on the display column instead of the visible column, which made the guessed choices influenced by which values were referenced as well as completely broken when converting from reflist.
- @dsagal @georgegevoian This builds on https://phab.getgrist.com/D3265, currently unmerged. That diff was created first to alert to the change. Without it there would still be similar test failures/changes here as the date format would often be concretely guessed and saved as YYYY-MM-DD instead of being left as the default `undefined` which is shows as YYYY-MM-DD in the dropdown.
Test Plan: Added a unit test to `parseDate.ts`. Updated several browser tests which show the guessing in action during type conversion quite nicely.

Summary: This is https://phab.getgrist.com/D3205 plus some changes (https://github.com/dsagal/grist/compare/type-convert...type-convert-server?expand=1) that move the conversion process to the backend. A new user action ConvertFromColumn uses `call_external` so that the data engine can delegate back to ActiveDoc. Code for creating formatters and parsers is significantly refactored so that most of the logic is in `common` and can be used in different ways.
Test Plan: The original diff adds plenty of tests.

Summary:
We used tslint earlier, and on switching to eslint, some rules were not
transfered. This moves more rules over, for consistent conventions or helpful
warnings.
- Name private members with a leading underscore.
- Prefer interface over a type alias.
- Use consistent spacing around ':' in type annotations.
- Use consistent spacing around braces of code blocks.
- Use semicolons consistently at the ends of statements.
- Use braces around even one-liner blocks, like conditionals and loops.
- Warn about shadowed variables.
Test Plan: Fixed all new warnings. Should be no behavior changes in code.

Summary:
- Update rules to be more like we've had with tslint
- Switch tsserver plugin to eslint (tsserver makes for a much faster way to lint in editors)
- Apply suggested auto-fixes
- Fix all lint errors and warnings in core/, app/, test/
Test Plan: Some behavior may change subtly (e.g. added missing awaits), relying on existing tests to catch problems.

Summary:
Type conversions and formula tranforms wait for the user and bundle multiple
actions. When an unrelated action is done (e.g. adding a page widget or a
column), we want to finalize the transform before applying it.
The approach turns out fairly complicated. There is an implicit queue of
bundles (which we don't let grow beyond 2, as that's too abnormal). Bundles may
be finalized by a user clicking something, or by an unrelated action/bundle, or
(as before) by transform DOM getting disposed.
- Updated RecordLayout to use bundleActions() helper
- Added support for nesting bundleActions inside another bundle (needed for
setting visibleCol during type change)
- In an unrelated tweak, when in debug-log in ActiveDoc, use a short representation of result.
Test Plan: Added a unittest for action bundling during type transform

Summary:
This moves all client code to core, and makes minimal fix-ups to
get grist and grist-core to compile correctly. The client works
in core, but I'm leaving clean-up around the build and bundles to
follow-up.
Test Plan: existing tests pass; server-dev bundle looks sane
