This is a start at a page for diagnosing problems while setting up Grist. Starting to add some diagnostics based on feedback in github issues. We should make Grist installation easier! But when there is a problem it should be easier to diagnose than it is now, and this may help. The page is ugly and doesn't have many diagnostics yet, but we can iterate.
Visit `/boot` on a Grist server for tips on how to use this feature.
Summary:
- Rename "Add Default Rule" to "Add Table-wide Rule", and enable always.
- Rename "All Other" to "All".
Test Plan: Updated test; new behavior (for when menu option is newly enabled) only tested manually.

Summary:
When a widget `A` is selected by a widget `B` so that `A` is filtered, adding a new row to `A` uses the values in the selected row of `B` and the columns relevant to the linking as default values for the new row. This ensures that the new row matches the current linking filter and remains visible. However this would previously cause a sandbox error when one of the linking columns was a formula column, which doesn't allow setting values. This diff ignores formula columns when picking default values.
Since the value of the formula column in the new row typically won't match the linking filter, extra measures are needed to avoid the new row immediately disappearing. Regular filters already have a mechanism for this, but I didn't manage to extend it to also work for linking. Thanks @dsagal for creating `UnionRowSource` (originally in D4017) which is now used as the solution for temporarily exempting rows from both kinds of filtering.
While testing, I also came across another bug in linking summary tables that caused incorrect filtering, which I fixed with some changes to `DynamicQuerySet`.
Test Plan: Extended an nbrowser test, which both tests for the main change as well as the secondary bugfix.

First one allow user to chose the type of newly created column, to save time for selecting this option in creator menu. "Add formula column" opens formula editor in popup state right after creating the column. In this case, renaming column popup is ignored to not overburden user with to many popup at once.

This makes a few refinements to bundling widgets:
* A widget with `published: false` is not shown in the
custom widget dropdown in the UI. This is so widgets
can be bundled with the app for "native" use (like the
calendar widget) without immediately resulting in an
extra listing in the UI. (There are improvements we'd
like to make to the UI to better communicate widget
provenance and quality eventually, which would be a
helpful alternative to just a binary flag.)
* A relative path to the custom widget manifest is
respected. This will make the bundling process marginally
neater.
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.
