As designed in https://grist.quip.com/fZSrAnJKgO5j/Add-or-Update-Records-API
Current `POST /records` adds records, and `PATCH /records` updates them by row ID. This adds `PUT /records` to 'upsert' records, applying the AddOrUpdate user action. PUT was chosen because it's idempotent. Using a separate method (instead of inferring based on the request body) also cleanly separates validation, documentation, etc.
The name `require` for the new property was suggested by Paul because `where` isn't very clear when adding records.

- Error 'ModifyColumn in unexpected position' when changing ChoiceList -> Text

- Double-evaluation of trigger formulas in some cases.
Fixes include:
- Fixed verification that summary group-by columns match the underlying ones,
and added comments to explain.
- Avoid updating non-metadata lookups after each doc-action (early lookups
generated extra actions to populate summary tables, causing the 'ModifyColumn

- When updating formulas, do update lookups first.
- Made a client-side tweak to avoid a JS error in case of some undos.

Summary:
Added a new object type code `l` (for lookup) which can be used in user actions as a temporary cell value in ref[list] columns and is immediately converted to a row ID in the data engine. The value contains the original raw string (to be used as alt text), the column ID to lookup (typically the visible column) and one or more values to lookup.
For reflists, valueParser now tries parsing the string first as JSON, then as a CSV row, and applies the visible column parsed to each item.
Both ref and reflists columns no longer format the parsed value when there's no matching reference, the original unparsed string is used as alttext instead.

Summary:
This verifies that all existing tests are capable of running under python3/gvisor, and fixes the small issues that came up. It does not yet activate python3 tests on all diffs, only diffs that specifically request them.
* Adds a suffix in test names and output directories for tests run with PYTHON_VERSION=3, so that results of the same test run with and without the flag can be aggregated cleanly.
* Adds support for checkpointing to the gvisor sandbox adapter.
* Prepares a checkpoint made after grist python code has loaded in the gvisor sandbox.
* Changes how `DOC_URL` is passed to the sandbox, since it can no longer be passed in as an environment variable when using checkpoints.
* Uses the checkpoint to speed up tests using the gvisor sandbox, otherwise a lot of tests need more time (especially on mac under docker).
* Directs jenkins to run all tests with python2 and python3 when a new file `buildtools/changelogs/python.txt` is touched (this diff counts as touching that file).
* Tweaks miscellaneous tests
- some needed fixes exposed by slightly different timing
- a small number actually give different results in py3 (removal of `u` prefixes).
- some needed a little more time
The DOC_URL change is not the ultimate solution we want for DOC_URL. Eventually it should be a variable that gets updated, like the date perhaps. This is just a small pragmatic change to preserve existing behavior.
Tests are run mindlessly as py3, and for some tests it won't change anything (e.g. if they do not use NSandbox). Tests are not run in parallel, doubling overall test time.
Checkpoints could be useful in deployment, though this diff doesn't use them there.
The application of checkpoints doesn't check for other configuration like 3-versus-5-pipe that we don't actually use.
Python2 tests run using pynbox as always for now.
The diff got sufficiently bulky that I didn't tackle running py3 on "regular" diffs in it. My preference, given that most tests don't appear to stress the python side of things, would be to make a selection of the tests that do and a few wild cards, and run those tests on both pythons rather then all of them. For diffs making a significant python change, I'd propose touching buildtools/changelogs/python.txt for full tests. But this is a conversation in progress.
A total of 6886 tests ran on this diff.
Test Plan: this is a step in preparing tests for py3 transition

This unsets the `direct` flag for actions emitted when summary tables are updated. That means those actions will be ignored for access control purposes. So if a user has the right to change a source table, the resulting changes to the summary won't result in the overall action bundle being forbidden.
I don't think I've actually seen the use case that inspired this issue being filed. I could imagine perhaps a user forbidden from creating rows globally making permitted updates that could add rows in a summary (and it being desirable to allow that).

If all fields match, then the matched record in the

from the source table. This means the incoming values will
replace the destination table values, unless the incoming
values are blank.
Additional merge strategies are implemented in the data
engine, but the import dialog only uses one of the
strategies currently. The others can be exposed in the UI
in the future, and tweak the behavior of how source
and destination values should be merged in different contexts,
such as when blank values exist.

Summary:
The problem: For a data-cleaning column (one that depends on itself) `doBulkUpdateRecord` calls `prevent_recalc(should_prevent=False)``
which is supposed to cause it to get calculated eventually.
But before that it calls `_do_doc_action` -> `apply_doc_action` -> `_bring_lookups_up_to_date` which recalculates
a lookup column which eventually calls `_recompute_step(allow_evaluation=False)` on the data-cleaning column
which shouldn't really do anything significant but it both modifies the set `self.recompute_map[node]`
and then removes it from the map after it's empty.
The solution: when `allow_evaluation=False` and `self._prevent_recompute_map[node]` is nonempty,
ensure `self.recompute_map[node]` is not modified,
and check the map directly (instead of `dirty_rows` which can now be separate) to see if the set is empty before cleanup.
Test Plan: Added a lookup column to test_self_trigger, ensured that this caused the test to fail without the other two changes in engine.py.
