The motivation for supporting an alternative to WebSockets is that while all browsers supported by Grist offer native WebSocket support, some networking environments do not allow WebSocket traffic.
Engine.IO is used as the underlying implementation of HTTP long polling. The Grist client will first attempt a regular WebSocket connection, using the same protocol and endpoints as before, but fall back to long polling using Engine.IO if the WebSocket connection fails.
Include these changes:
- CORS websocket requests are now rejected as a stronger security measure. This shouldn’t affect anything in practice; but previously it could be possible to make unauthenticated websocket requests from another origin.
- GRIST_HOST variable no longer affects CORS responses (also should not affect anything in practice, as it wasn't serving a useful purpose)
Summary:
- Add InstallAdmin class to identify users who can manage Grist installation.
This is overridable by different Grist flavors (e.g. different in SaaS).
It generalizes previous logic used to decide who can control Activation
settings (e.g. enable telemetry).
- Implement a basic Admin Panel at /admin, and move items previously in the
"Support Grist" page into the "Support Grist" section of the Admin Panel.
- Replace "Support Grist" menu items with "Admin Panel" and show only to admins.
- Add "Support Grist" links to Github sponsorship to user-account menu.
- Add "Support Grist" button to top-bar, which
- for admins, replaces the previous "Contribute" button and reopens the "Support Grist / opt-in to telemetry" nudge (unchanged)
- for everyone else, links to Github sponsorship
- in either case, user can dismiss it.
Test Plan: Shuffled some test cases between Support Grist and the new Admin Panel, and added some new cases.

Summary: Using the lookup shortcut in the add column menu to find a max or min value is a buggy experience. MAX and MIN returns 0 for empty collections which can be interpreted as 1970.1.1 in date or date time columns. It is better to just return None (empty cell) when there are no records.

Summary:
- UI now trims column rules before saving.
- When rules are loaded, bits that aren't applicable to a resource get ignored.
This should fix the incorrect behavior in existing docs without a migration.
Test Plan:
- Added test of UI, that it now sends trimmed rules
- Added a unitteset of new trimPermissions() function
- Add test of fixed interpretation of existing rules: now only permission bits
applicable to a resource get respected. I.e. create/delete/schemaEdit are
ignored in column rules, and schemaEdit is also ignored in table rules.
- Note that DuplicateTest was affected: updated on the assumption that
schemaEdit still can't actually apply at a table level.

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.

One particular RawData test failure looks to be a consequence of notification toasts building up enough to cover a strategic button. This makes a somewhat simple-minded and brutal fix.
Also gives RemoveTransformColumns a bit more time.
Summary:
There has been inconsistency in using display email vs normalized email, which
ends up creating some duplication in downstream analyses (e.g. the same user
showing up twice with different capitalization).
1. Add UserProfile.loginEmail field with normalized email to prefer, when set, over the inconsistently used UserProfile.email.
2. In one place where it's not available, normalize the display email manually.
3. Clean up some code in Client.ts.
Unrelated tweak to API Console to be clear when a URL parameter wasn't found (rather than show whatever happens to be the first value).
Several test robustness improvements:
- Misplaced parenthesis in gristWebDriverUtils has been causing optTimeout argument to be ignored in tests, and treated always as indefinite.
- Attempt to fix SortMenu test by ignoring (retrying with logging) errors in waitForServer, which include "script timeout" errors that come from a non-configurable selenium or chromedriver timeout.
- Attempt to improve onNewTab() helper, which plays a role in failing Billing tests.
Test Plan: Tested manually the capitalization of logged emails. Counting on existing tests to catch issues.

1. When editing a number with "," decimal separator, ensure it opens in
the editor with "," (rather than ".", the original bug motivating this).
2. When guessing number format, set maxDecimals when it's needed
(otherwise, e.g. "$1.234", or "4.5%" weren't guessed as numeric)
3. When guessing number format, ignore whitespace when deciding if
guessed format is correct (otherwise percents can't be guessed in
locales which add "%" with a non-breaking space before it).
