Summary:
Recently, the server became more strict about not responding to
requests before being fully configured. This is a problem when
a doc worker is trying to check whether it has become available
from a load balancer.
This change gives access to health checks prior to configuration
being complete. Otherwise, app endpoints accessed before full
configuration return a 503.
A flag is added to /status to allow checking explicitly for
the server being ready and configured.

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.

A nudge is also shown in the doc menu, which can be collapsed or permanently
dismissed.

Summary:
Now that webhook payload delivery can be done using a proxy,
it may be desirable to no longer require a set of `ALLOWED_WEBHOOK_DOMAINS`.
This diff allows this variable to be set to `*`. With this setting,
any domain, and both `http` and `https` protocols will now be accepted.
Another possibility would be to default to unchecked
behavior if `ALLOWED_WEBHOOK_DOMAINS` is not set. But this would
introduce a new kind of vulnerability to unconfigured Grist
installations.
Test Plan: switched a test from naming a domain to using `*`

* Replace `ormconfig.js` with a newer mechanism of configuring
TypeORM that can be included in the source code properly.
The path to `ormconfig.js` has always been awkward to handle,
and eliminating the file makes building different Grist setups
a bit simpler.
* Remove `electron` package. It is barely used, just for some old
remnants of an older attempt at electron packaging. It was used
for two types, which I left at `any` for now. More code pruning is
no doubt possible here, but I'd rather do it when Electron packaging
has solidified.
* Add a hook for replacing the login system, and for adding some
extra middleware the login system may need.
* Add support for some more possible locations of Python, which
arise when a standalone version of it is included in the Electron
package. This isn't very general purpose, just configurations
that I found useful.
* Support using grist-core within a yarn workspace - the only tweak
needed was webpack related.
* Allow an external ID to be optionally associated with documents.
Summary:
The changes in this diff are sufficient to make this sequence work again:
```
./build electron-dev
bin/electron app/electron/runPrebuild.js
```
This brings up the local server within an electron window.
This is an unambitious diff, aimed at checking how rusty electron support had become. It does not revive Grist as a packaged electron app. The first substantial work needed would be to make the app aware of the local file system again, and think through how local files should be visualized and accessed now. In the past, there was a simple list of grist docs in a directory.

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.

Previously, absence of `GRIST_DOCS_S3_BUCKET` was equated with absence
of external storage, but that is no longer true now that Azure is
available. Azure could be used by setting `GRIST_DOCS_S3_BUCKET`
but the alternative `GRIST_AZURE_CONTAINER` flag is friendlier.
Test Plan:
confirmed manually that Azure can be configured and

Summary:
* Remove adjustSession hack, interfering with loading docs under saml.
* Allow the anonymous user to receive an empty list of workspaces for
the merged org.
* Behave better on first page load when org is in path - this used to
fail because of lack of cookie. This is very visible in grist-core,
as a failure to load localhost:8484 on first visit.
* Mark cookie explicitly as SameSite=Lax to remove a warning in firefox.
* Make errorPages available in grist-core.
This changes the default behavior of grist-core to now start off in
anonymous mode, with an explicit sign-in step available. If SAML is not configured,
the sign-in operation will unconditionally sign the user in as a default
user, without any password check or other security. The user email is
taken from GRIST_DEFAULT_EMAIL if set. This is a significant change, but
makes anonymous mode available in grist-core (which is convenient
for testing) and makes behavior with and without SAML much more consistent.
Test Plan: updated test; manual (time to start adding grist-core tests though!)

This adds endpoints that allow the support user to remove unlisted
snapshots for a document, and to remove all action history for
a document.
This does increase what the support user can do, but not in a way
that would be particularly valuable to attack. It would have some
destructive value, for removing history (removing unlisted
snapshots doesn't impact the user, by contrast).
This would simplify some maintenance operations.
