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:
Fixes a very specific bug reported here: https://grist.slack.com/archives/C069RUP71/p1694630242765769
The error occurred when:
1. Removing multiple columns simultaneously
2. Those columns were sources of groupby columns for a summary table (so removing them meant recreating the summary table and thus deleting its columns)
3. There was a display column for one of the columns that got deleted (either directly or indirectly) which was set to be automatically removed since it was no longer needed, but this failed because the column was already deleted as part of earlier table removal.
I fixed this by making `apply_auto_removes` remove table records last, so removing the display column wouldn't be a problem.
That fixed the original error, but then I noticed that trying to undo the removal could lead to another error (under even more specific circumstances). It's hard to see exactly why, but I can see that just 3 `RemoveColumn` user actions generated over 100 doc actions and corresponding undo actions, hence the difficulty in narrowing the problem down. This is partly because removing a single column would recreate a summary table, only for that table to be immediately replaced again when another column was removed. Making the frontend send a single `[BulkRemoveRecord, _grist_Tables_column, ...] ` leads to a more efficient and sensible process with about half as many doc actions and no undo error. I think this alone would also solve the original error, but the data engine change seems more generally helpful and worth keeping.
Test Plan: Added a Python test and an nbrowser test

Summary:
First iteration for comments system for Grist.
- 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.
Some things for follow-up
- 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.

Summary: When the `getSummarySourceGroup` function (used by the `$group` column) finds that the group is empty, raise a new special exception `EmptySummaryRow`. The engine catches this exception, avoids saving a value to the cell, and removes the record.

Summary:
Adds some special handling to summary table and lookup logic:
- Source rows with empty choicelists/reflists get a corresponding summary row with an empty string/reference when grouping by that column, instead of excluding them from any group
- Adds a new `QueryOperation` 'empty' in the client which is used in `LinkingState`, `QuerySet`, and `recursiveMoveToCursorPos` to match empty lists in source tables against falsy values in linked summary tables.
- Adds a new parameter `match_empty` to the Python `CONTAINS` function so that regular formulas can implement the same behaviour as summary tables. See https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1654030490932119
- Uses the new `match_empty` argument in the formula generated for the `group` column when detaching a summary table.
Test Plan: Updated and extended Python and nbrowser tests of summary tables grouped by choicelists to test for new behaviour with empty lists.

Summary:
Adding conditional formatting rules feature.
Each column can have multiple styling rules which are applied in order
when evaluated to a truthy value.
- The creator panel has a new section: Cell Style
- New user action AddEmptyRule for adding an empty rule
- New columns in _grist_Table_columns and fields
A new color picker will be introduced in a follow-up diff (as it is also
used in choice/choice list/filters).

Dealing with some things that bothered and sometimes confused me:
Make Table.Record[Set] provide the table argument automatically
Remove the classes from UserTable because they're not used anywhere and the Table/UserTable distinction is already confusing. They're not documented for users and they don't show up in autocomplete.
Remove RecordSet.Record because it was confusing me where that attribute was being set, but also this means .Record will work properly for users with columns named 'Record'.

Summary:
Trigger formulas can be calculated for new records, or for new records and
updates to certain fields, or all fields. They do not recalculate on open,
and they MAY be set directly by the user, including for data-cleaning.
- Column metadata now includes recalcWhen and recalcDeps fields.
- Trigger formulas are NOT recalculated on open or on schema changes.
- When recalcWhen is "never", formula isn't calculated even for new records.
- When recalcWhen is "allupdates", formula is calculated for new records and
any manual (non-formula) updates to the record.
- When recalcWhen is "", formula is calculated for new records, and changes to
recalcDeps fields (which may be formula fields or column itself).
- A column whose recalcDeps includes itself is a "data-cleaning" column; a
value set by the user will still trigger the formula.
- All trigger-formulas receive a "value" argument (to support the case above).
Small changes
- Update RefLists (used for recalcDeps) when target rows are deleted.
- Add RecordList.__contains__ (for `rec in refList` or `id in refList` checks)
- Clarify that Calculate action has replaced load_done() in practice,
and use it in tests too, to better match reality.
Left for later:
- UI for setting recalcWhen / recalcDeps.
- Implementation of actions such as "Recalculate for all cells".
- Allowing trigger-formulas access to the current user's info.
Test Plan: Added a comprehensive python-side test for various trigger combinations

Summary:
- Placed rule-updating functions in acl.py.
- Reset UI when rules update externally, or alert the user to reset if there
are pending local changes.
- Removed some unused and distracting bits from client-side DocModel.
A few improvements related to poor error handling:
- In case of missing DocActions (tickled by broken ACL rule handling), don't
add to confusion by attempting to process bad actions
- In case of missing attributes in ACL formulas, return undefined rather than
fail; the latter creates more problems.
- In case in invalid rules, fail rather than skip; this feels more correct now
that we have error checking and recovery option, and helps avoid invalid rules.
- Prevent saving invalid rules with an empty ACL formula.
- Fix bug with rule positions.
Test Plan: Added a python and browser test for table/column renames.

The new plans for granular access control are different and handled by
node.js. Some of the same tables will be reused, of which we never made
real use before except for expecting certain specific initial records.
This diff removes the old logic, replacing it with a stub that satisfies
the interface expected by other code.
It also removes several unused UserActions: AddUser/RemoveUser/
AddInstance/RemoveInstance.
