Summary:
When possible, the original column headers from imported
files will now be used as the labels for Grist columns. This includes
values that were previously invalid Grist column identifiers, such
as those containing Unicode.
Test Plan: Updated server and browser tests.

Summary: This is the first step towards raw data views, merely adding metadata without any UI. Every 'normal' table now has a widget referenced by `rawViewSectionRef`. It has no parent view/page and cannot actually be viewed for now. The widget is created during the AddTable user action, and the migration creates a widget for existing tables.
Test Plan: Many tests had to be updated, especially tests that listed all view sections and/or fields.

Summary:
The Importer dialog is now maximized, showing additional column
matching options and information on the left, with the preview
table shown on the right. Columns can be mapped via a select menu
listing all source columns, or by clicking a formula field next to
the menu and directly editing the transform formula.
Test Plan: Browser tests.

Summary:
Finishing imports now occurs in Node instead of the
data engine, which makes it possible to import into
on-demand tables. Merging code was also refactored
and now uses a SQL query to diff source and destination
tables in order to determine what to update or add.
Also fixes a bug where incremental imports involving
Excel files with multiple sheets would fail due to the UI
not serializing merge options correctly.
Test Plan: Browser tests.

Summary:
The import dialog now has an option to 'Update existing records',
which when checked will allow for selection of 1 or more fields
to match source and destination tables on.
If all fields match, then the matched record in the
destination table will be merged with the incoming record
from the source table. This means the incoming values will
replace the destination table values, unless the incoming
values are blank.
Additional merge strategies are implemented in the data
engine, but the import dialog only uses one of the
strategies currently. The others can be exposed in the UI
in the future, and tweak the behavior of how source
and destination values should be merged in different contexts,
such as when blank values exist.
Test Plan: Python and browser tests.
