Summary:
Python 2 only needs to be supported for the sake of old documents and formulas. This doesn't apply to the separate sandboxes that parse files for imports. Using Python 3 only allows using newer libraries and library versions. In particular, the latest version of openpyxl doesn't support Python 2. This will also make it easier to make other similar changes in the future, such as replacing messytables with a modern library. See https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1661261829343999?thread_ts=1661260442.837959&cid=C0234CPPXPA
The latest openpyxl is better at handling a particular edge case with broken dates in Excel, but still doesn't quite do what we want, so we monkeypatch it. Discussion: https://grist.slack.com/archives/C02EGJ1FUCV/p1661440851911869?thread_ts=1661154219.515549&cid=C02EGJ1FUCV
Setting `preferredPythonVersion` to '3' in SafePythonComponent ensures that JS always creates import sandboxes that use Python 3. Within Python, a module used by all imports will raise an error in Python 2. Python unit tests of imports are now only run in Python 3, using the `load_tests` protocol of `unittest`.
Test Plan: Mostly existing tests. Added another strange date to the Excel fixture.

Summary:
This addresses a rare bug where xls files with invalid dimensions
could not be imported into Grist due to how openpyxl handles
parsing them.
Test Plan: Server test.

Summary:
Use openpyxl instead of messytables (which used xlrd internally) in import_xls.py.
Skip empty rows since excel files can easily contain huge numbers of them.
Drop support for xls files (which openpyxl doesn't support) in favour of the newer xlsx format.
Fix some details relating to python virtualenvs and dependencies, as Jenkins was failing to find new Python dependencies.
Test Plan: Mostly relying on existing tests. Updated various tests which referred to xls files instead of xlsx. Added a Python test for skipping empty rows.

Summary:
Python isdigit() returns true for unicode characters such as "²", which fail
when used as an argument to int().
Instead, be explicit about only considering characters 0-9 to be digits.
Test Plan: Added a test case which produces an error without this change.

Summary:
Our date-guessing logic analyzes text in full looking for date parts.
This diff skip all that work when text is so long that we don't need to
consider it to be a valid date.
This is a quick fix. There are probably many other cases when we don't
need to try hard to parse arbitrary text as dates.
Test Plan: Added a fixture and test case that would trigger the error without the fix.

Summary:
Move all the plugins python code into the main folder with the core code.
Register file importing functions in the same main.py entrypoint as the data engine.
Remove options relating to different entrypoints and code directories. The only remaining plugin-specific option in NSandbox is the import directory/mount, i.e. where files to be parsed are placed.
Test Plan: this

Summary:
this moves sandbox/grist to core, and adds a requirements.txt
file for reconstructing the content of sandbox/thirdparty.
Test Plan:
existing tests pass.
Tested core functionality manually. Tested docker build manually.
