Allows bidirectional / cyclic linking for same-record cursor links.
This should allow multiple sections to all synchronize their cursors,
such that clicking in any one of them will move all the others.
Works even if some sections in the cycle have rows filtered out (the
filtered-out sections might desync their cursors, but the correct cursor
position will still propagate downstream, and they'll re-sync if clicking on
a row that is present in them)
Under the hood, each cursor has a _lastEditedAt counter, updated when
a user's action changes the cursor in a section, such that we can always
tell which section was touched most recently. This is used to resolve
conflicts stably when dealing with cycles or chains of cursor-links.
Updated selectBy and recursiveMoveToCursorPos to handle cycles
Updated tests for selectBy behavior
However, main bidirectional-linking tests are not in this commit, they'll come in a subsequent PR
Summary:
Adding a new method `setCursorPos` in the widget API, and a new configuration option for the ready message `allowSelectBy` that exposes custom widgets in the `Select by` dropdown.
With this, a custom widget can control the position of the linked widgets and is able to change the column in the creator panel.
Test Plan: Added new test. Existing tests should pass.

Summary:
In a selector table, when a selected row is filtered out of view, linked widgets should update based on the newly selected row.
There were a few bugs that contributed to this wrong behavior:
- Gridview wasn't subscribing to the current row id, and the row with id 'new' was being converted to the first row
- Cursor was keeping track of the currently selected row id, it was hiding a problem behind the proper rowIndex
- Undo/redo somehow leveraged the wrong rowId from the cursor during the position restore.
The `No data` text was also changed to be more meaningful.
Test Plan: Added and updated.

Summary:
Fixes a bug when in a linked widget, the automatic reference wasn't being set
for a new record if attachment is the first thing that gets added to the
record.
- Move handling of 'setCursorPos' pseudo-command to GristDoc to support cross-section switching (relevant when moving attachment into a cell of a non-active page widget)
- Modernize code for AttachmentsWidget slightly (better typings, css conventions)
- Change the fix in https://phab.getgrist.com/D3796 from using isolate to using different z-index values, to avoid a change in the look of the cursor on Attachment cells.
Test Plan: Added a test case for what's possible to test with webdriver.

Summary:
Building:
- Builds no longer wait for tsc for either client, server, or test targets. All use esbuild which is very fast.
- Build still runs tsc, but only to report errors. This may be turned off with `SKIP_TSC=1` env var.
- Grist-core continues to build using tsc.
- Esbuild requires ES6 module semantics. Typescript's esModuleInterop is turned
on, so that tsc accepts and enforces correct usage.
- Client-side code is watched and bundled by webpack as before (using esbuild-loader)
Code changes:
- Imports must now follow ES6 semantics: `import * as X from ...` produces a
module object; to import functions or class instances, use `import X from ...`.
- Everything is now built with isolatedModules flag. Some exports were updated for it.
Packages:
- Upgraded browserify dependency, and related packages (used for the distribution-building step).
- Building the distribution now uses esbuild's minification. babel-minify is no longer used.
Test Plan: Should have no behavior changes, existing tests should pass, and docker image should build too.

Summary:
- Upgrades to build-related packages:
- Upgrade typescript, related libraries and typings.
- Upgrade webpack, eslint; add tsc-watch, node-dev, eslint_d.
- Build organization changes:
- Build webpack from original typescript, transpiling only; with errors still
reported by a background tsc watching process.
- Typescript-related changes:
- Reduce imports of AWS dependencies (very noticeable speedup)
- Avoid auto-loading global @types
- Client code is now built with isolatedModules flag (for safe transpilation)
- Use allowJs to avoid copying JS files manually.
- Linting changes
- Enhance Arcanist ESLintLinter to run before/after commands, and set up to use eslint_d
- Update eslint config, and include .eslintignore to avoid linting generated files.
- Include a bunch of eslint-prompted and eslint-generated fixes
- Add no-unused-expression rule to eslint, and fix a few warnings about it
- Other items:
- Refactor cssInput to avoid circular dependency
- Remove a bit of unused code, libraries, dependencies
Test Plan: No behavior changes, all existing tests pass. There are 30 tests fewer reported because `test_gpath.py` was removed (it's been unused for years)

Summary:
- Anchor links with row of 'new' could be created but weren't parsed or used
correctly. This fixes it.
- Also adds UIRowId type for row IDs which includes the special 'new' row. It's
already been used in places as `number|'new'`, this diff gives it a name usable in app/common
(it doesn't touch another name, RowId, that's been available in app/client).
Test Plan: Added a test assert for anchor links to new row

Summary:
We used tslint earlier, and on switching to eslint, some rules were not
transfered. This moves more rules over, for consistent conventions or helpful
warnings.
- Name private members with a leading underscore.
- Prefer interface over a type alias.
- Use consistent spacing around ':' in type annotations.
- Use consistent spacing around braces of code blocks.
- Use semicolons consistently at the ends of statements.
- Use braces around even one-liner blocks, like conditionals and loops.
- Warn about shadowed variables.
Test Plan: Fixed all new warnings. Should be no behavior changes in code.

Summary:
This moves all client code to core, and makes minimal fix-ups to
get grist and grist-core to compile correctly. The client works
in core, but I'm leaving clean-up around the build and bundles to
follow-up.
Test Plan: existing tests pass; server-dev bundle looks sane
