This is a start at a page for diagnosing problems while setting up Grist. Starting to add some diagnostics based on feedback in github issues. We should make Grist installation easier! But when there is a problem it should be easier to diagnose than it is now, and this may help. The page is ugly and doesn't have many diagnostics yet, but we can iterate.
Visit `/boot` on a Grist server for tips on how to use this feature.
Summary:
Adds a new Record Card view section to each non-summary table, which can be from opened from various parts of the Grist UI to view and edit records in a popup card view.
Work is still ongoing, so the feature is locked away behind a flag; follow-up work is planned to finish up the implementation and add end-to-end tests.
Test Plan: Python and server tests. Browser tests will be included in a follow-up.

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.

This adds an ASSISTANT_CHAT_COMPLETION_ENDPOINT which can be used
to enable AI Assistance instead of an OpenAI API key. The assistant
then works against compatible endpoints, in the mechanical sense.
Quality of course will depend on the model. I found some tweaks
to the prompt that work well both for Llama-2 and for OpenAI's models,
but I'm not including them here because they would conflict with some
prompt changes that are already in the works.

* move getTemplateOrg method; enable template org in docker tests

- Comments are stored in a generic metatable `_grist_Cells`
- Each comment is connected to a particular cell (hence the generic name of the table)
- Access level works naturally for records stored in this table
-- User can add/read comments for cells he can see
-- User can't update/remove comments that he doesn't own, but he can delete them by removing cells (rows/columns)
-- Anonymous users can't see comments at all.
- Each comment can have replies (but replies can't have more replies)
Comments are hidden by default, they can be enabled by COMMENTS=true env variable.

- Avatars, currently the user's profile image is not shown or retrieved from the server
- Virtual rendering for comments list in creator panel. Currently, there is a limit of 200 comments.
