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: By default, new date columns show "YYYY-MM-DD" as the date format in the UI, but under the hood it's stored as null/undefined, which affects parsing during pasting and type conversion. This changes the underlying parsing to always default to YYYY-MM-DD, as if that format was explicitly selected, making things more consistent.
Test Plan: Updated some tests.

Summary:
- Rather than translate from moment format to that of bootstrap-datepicker, use
the customization methods to format datepicker dates using moment directly.
- Fix issue with parseDate() when format includes tokens like Mo or Do
- Fix issue in parseDateTime() that could produce an off-by-one error in date
depending on local timezone.
- When opening DateEditor, show AltText value if present.
- Add crossorigin=anonymous to scripts that were missing it (including
bootstrap-datepicker), to ensure that errors from them are reported properly
rather than as 'Script error.'
Test Plan:
Added test cases to parseDate() test for low-level fixes; added a
browser test for the fixed DateEditor behavior.

Summary: Allows any timezone abbreviation associated with the given timezone, and simply ignores it. Previously only certain abbreviations worked and they were not unique so using them outside the US was broken.

Summary: Adds parseDateStrict function based on parseDate, uses it in DateParser subclass of ValueParser.
Test Plan:
Tweaked parseDate test to check parseDateStrict.
Extended test in CopyPaste to test parsing dates as well as numbers.

Summary:
- With a format like "DD-MM-YYYY" or "DD MMM YYYY", allow parsing dates
with two digit year or numeric month (like "16-8-21").
- Interpret two-digit years in the same way for moment parsing and for
bootstrap-datepicker.
- For partial inputs (like "8/16"), when a format is present, assume that
provided parts cover the date, then month, then year (even for a format that
starts with year).
Test Plan: Expanded a unittest

Summary: This moves enough server material into core to run a home server. The data engine is not yet incorporated (though in manual testing it works when ported).
Test Plan: existing tests pass
