Summary:
This gives a mechanism for controlling access control within a document that is distinct from (though implemented with the same machinery as) granular access rules.
It was hard to find a good way to insert this that didn't dissolve in a soup of complications, so here's what I went with:
* When reading rules, if there are shares, extra rules are added.
* If there are shares, all rules are made conditional on a "ShareRef" user property.
* "ShareRef" is null when a doc is accessed in normal way, and the row id of a share when accessed via a share.
There's no UI for controlling shares (George is working on it for forms), but you can do it by editing a `_grist_Shares` table in a document. Suppose you make a fresh document with a single page/table/widget, then to create an empty share you can do:
```
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.sendAction(['AddRecord', '_grist_Shares', null, {linkId: 'xyz', options: '{"publish": true}'}])
```
If you look at the home db now there should be something in the `shares` table:
```
$ sqlite3 -table landing.db "select * from shares"
+----+------------------------+------------------------+--------------+---------+
| id | key | doc_id | link_id | options |
+----+------------------------+------------------------+--------------+---------+
| 1 | gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K | 4qYuace1xP2CTcPunFdtan | xyz | ... |
+----+------------------------+------------------------+--------------+---------+
```
If you take the key from that (gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K in this case) and replace the document's urlId in its URL with `s.<key>` (in this case `s.gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K` then you can use the regular document landing page (it will be quite blank initially) or API endpoint via the share.
E.g. for me `http://localhost:8080/o/docs/s0gSL4g38PsyautLHnjmXh2K/share-inter-3` accesses the doc.
To actually share some material - useful commands:
```
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.getMetaTable('_grist_Views_section').getRecords()
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.sendAction(['UpdateRecord', '_grist_Views_section', 1, {shareOptions: '{"publish": true, "form": true}'}])
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.getMetaTable('_grist_Pages').getRecords()
gristDocPageModel.gristDoc.get().docData.sendAction(['UpdateRecord', '_grist_Pages', 1, {shareRef: 1}])
```
For a share to be effective, at least one page needs to have its shareRef set to the rowId of the share, and at least one widget on one of those pages needs to have its shareOptions set to {"publish": "true", "form": "true"} (meaning turn on sharing, and include form sharing), and the share itself needs {"publish": true} on its options.
I think special shares are kind of incompatible with public sharing, since by their nature (allowing access to all endpoints) they easily expose the docId, and changing that would be hard.

The error can often be fixed by just reloading the document with no need
to worry the document owners
For example, when the error message is: "interrupted by reconnect"

Summary:
This removes checking for full access in `onRecord/onRecords` when `includeColumns` is a non-default value. The check had two problems:
1. It relied on the access level being present in the URL query parameters, which doesn't work if the page has redirected. See the discussion in https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1702576602615509. There seems to be no way to reliably and synchronously check the access level.
2. Calling `onRecords` before `ready` and forgetting to handle an error from the access check meant that `ready` wouldn't be called, so Grist couldn't request the correct access level from the user. I made this mistake and it seems like a nasty footgun.
Ultimately this has no effect on security, as an error will still be raised, but in a place where the widget developer can't catch it. They'll still see an error message in the console, and they can still check the access level reliably using `onOptions`, so I think this is OK.

After adding a batch of new server tests, some interactions between
tests have shown up via a shared database. This sets an existing flag
for dealing with this problem, that is used during browser tests but
hadn't been needed before for server tests.
Summary:
This moves some more tests to core that would be useful for ANCT,
which had been stuck in grist-saas due to some entanglements with
sendgrid and billing. For sendgrid, I've moved around just enough
material to permit the tests to run mostly unchanged. Ideally
the interface to a notification system would be generalized, but
that's a bigger project.
Test Plan:
checked that tests are likely to run as expected
in core using preview laid out by ./buildtools/build_core.sh

Summary:
If linking state changes multiple times frequently the code that simulates async operation is
wrongly debounced, which causes inverted order of execution. This fix makes sure that only the last

Summary:
When a widget `A` is selected by a widget `B` so that `A` is filtered, adding a new row to `A` uses the values in the selected row of `B` and the columns relevant to the linking as default values for the new row. This ensures that the new row matches the current linking filter and remains visible. However this would previously cause a sandbox error when one of the linking columns was a formula column, which doesn't allow setting values. This diff ignores formula columns when picking default values.
Since the value of the formula column in the new row typically won't match the linking filter, extra measures are needed to avoid the new row immediately disappearing. Regular filters already have a mechanism for this, but I didn't manage to extend it to also work for linking. Thanks @dsagal for creating `UnionRowSource` (originally in D4017) which is now used as the solution for temporarily exempting rows from both kinds of filtering.
While testing, I also came across another bug in linking summary tables that caused incorrect filtering, which I fixed with some changes to `DynamicQuerySet`.
Test Plan: Extended an nbrowser test, which both tests for the main change as well as the secondary bugfix.
