Alex Hall	5d671bf0b3	(core) New type conversion in the backend ... 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.
