526a5df157 (core) Manage memory used for websocket responses to reduce the risk of server crashes.
Summary:
- Implements MemoryPool for waiting on memory reservations.
- Uses MemoryPool to control memory used for stringifying JSON responses in Client.ts
- Limits total size of _missedMessages that may be queued for a particular client.
- Upgrades ws library, which may reduce memory usage, and allows pausing the websocket for testing.
  - The upgrade changed subtle behavior corners, requiring various fixes to code and tests.

- dos.ts:
  - Includes Paul's fixes and updates to the dos.ts script for manual stress-testing.
  - Logging tweaks, to avoid excessive dumps on uncaughtError, and include timestamps.

Test Plan:
- Includes a test that measures heap size, and fails without memory management.
- Includes a unittest for MemoryPool
- Some cleanup and additions to TestServer helper; in particular adds makeUserApi() helper used in multiple tests.
- Some fixes related to ws upgrade.

c4d3d7d3bb (core) be careful when reassigning a doc to a worker it was on before
Summary:
Importing a .grist document is implemented in a somewhat clunky way, in a multi-worker setup.

 * First a random worker receives the upload, and updates Grist's various stores appropriately (database, redis, s3).
 * Then a random worker is assigned to serve the document.

If the worker serving the document fails, there is a chance the it will end up assigned to the worker that handled its upload. Currently the worker will misbehave in this case. This diff:

 * Ports a multi-worker test from test/home to run in test/s3, and adds a test simulating a bad scenario seen in the wild.
 * Fixes persistence of any existing document checksum in redis when a worker is assigned.
 * Adds a check when assigned a document to serve, and finding that document already cached locally. It isn't safe to rely only on the document checksum in redis, since that may have expired.
 * Explicitly claims the document on the uploading worker, so this situation becomes even less likely to arise.

Test Plan: added test

Summary:
Exposing custom widgets as a dropdown menu in custom section configuration panel.

Adding new environmental variable GRIST_WIDGET_LIST_URL that points to a
json file with an array of available widgets. When not present, custom widget menu is
hidden, exposing only Custom URL option.

Available widget list can be fetched from:
https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-widget/releases/download/latest/manifest.json

Test Plan: New tests, and updated old ones.

1517dca644 (core) Implement DiscourseConnect to enable easy sign-in to community forum
Summary:
- Update cookie module, to support modern sameSite settings
- Add a new cookie, grist_sid_status with less-sensitive value, to let less-trusted subdomains know if user is signed in
- The new cookie is kept in-sync with the session cookie.
- For a user signed in once, allow auto-signin is appropriate.
- For a user signed in with multiple accounts, show a page to select which account to use.
- Move css stylings for rendering users to a separate module.

Test Plan: Added a test case with a simulated Discourse page to test redirects and account-selection page.

526b0ad33e (core) Configure more comprehensive eslint rules for Typescript
Summary:
- Update rules to be more like we've had with tslint
- Switch tsserver plugin to eslint (tsserver makes for a much faster way to lint in editors)
- Apply suggested auto-fixes
- Fix all lint errors and warnings in core/, app/, test/

Test Plan: Some behavior may change subtly (e.g. added missing awaits), relying on existing tests to catch problems.

5ef889addd (core) move home server into core
Summary: This moves enough server material into core to run a home server.  The data engine is not yet incorporated (though in manual testing it works when ported).

Test Plan: existing tests pass
