Summary:
This removes ormconfig.js from the saas build since it is no longer
needed (and has always been a pain point).
This expands some sendgrid logging to help figure out a problem.
Test Plan: existing tests should pass

Summary:
Currently, we have two ways that we deliver Grist. One is grist-core,
which has simple defaults and is relatively easy for third parties to
deploy. The second is our internal build for our SaaS, which is the
opposite. For self-managed Grist, a planned paid on-premise version
of Grist, I adopt the following approach:
* Use the `grist-core` build mechanism, extending it to accept an
overlay of extra code if present.
* Extra code is supplied in a self-contained `ext` directory, with
an `ext/app` directory that is of same structure as core `app`
and `stubs/app`.
* The `ext` directory also contains information about extra
node dependencies needed beyond that of `grist-core`.
* The `ext` directory is contained within our monorepo rather than
`grist-core` since it may contain material not under the Apache
license.
Docker builds are achieved in our monorepo by using the `--build-context`
functionality to add in `ext` during the regular `grist-core` build:
```
docker buildx build --load -t gristlabs/grist-ee --build-context=ext=../ext .
```
Incremental builds in our monorepo are achieved with the `build_core.sh` helper,
like:
```
buildtools/build_core.sh /tmp/self-managed
cd /tmp/self-managed
yarn start
```
The initial `ext` directory contains material for snapshotting to S3.
If you build the docker image as above, and have S3 access, you can
do something like:
```
docker run -p 8484:8484 --env GRIST_SESSION_SECRET=a-secret \
--env GRIST_DOCS_S3_BUCKET=grist-docs-test \
--env GRIST_DOCS_S3_PREFIX=self-managed \
-v $HOME/.aws:/root/.aws -it gristlabs/grist-ee
```
This will start a version of Grist that is like `grist-core` but with
S3 snapshots enabled. To release this code to `grist-core`, it would
just need to move from `ext/app` to `app` within core.
I tried a lot of ways of organizing self-managed Grist, and this was
what made me happiest. There are a lot of trade-offs, but here is what
I was looking for:
* Only OSS-code in grist-core. Adding mixed-license material there
feels unfair to people already working with the repo. That said,
a possible future is to move away from our private monorepo to
a public mixed-licence repo, which could have the same relationship
with grist-core as the monorepo has.
* Minimal differences between self-managed builds and one of our
existing builds, ideally hewing as close to grist-core as possible
for ease of documentation, debugging, and maintenance.
* Ideally, docker builds without copying files around (the new
`--build-context` functionality made that possible).
* Compatibility with monorepo build.
Expressing dependencies of the extra code in `ext` proved tricky to
do in a clean way. Yarn/npm fought me every step of the way - everything
related to optional dependencies was unsatisfactory in some respect.
Yarn2 is flexible but smells like it might be overreach. In the end,
organizing to install non-core dependencies one directory up from the
main build was a good simple trick that saved my bacon.
This diff gets us to the point of building `grist-ee` images conveniently,
but there isn't a public repo people can go look at to see its source. This
could be generated by taking `grist-core`, adding the `ext` directory
to it, and pushing to a distinct repository. I'm not in a hurry to do that,
since a PR to that repo would be hard to sync with our monorepo and
`grist-core`. Also, we don't have any licensing text ready for the `ext`
directory. So leaving that for future work.

Summary:
* Base docker image no longer contained a `python` binary.
Made a small fix for this, with proper python3 packaging
in the works separately.
* Added missing plugins directory for importing csv+xlsx.
* Tweaked environment variables to avoid needing to hard-code
addresses, which was burdensome for single-server hosts.
Test Plan:
Tested manually. It would be good to move over some
fraction of our tests to catch packaging glitches, or to run
our standard deployment tests on a deployment derived from
grist-core.

Summary:
* adds a smoke test to grist-core
* fixes a problem with highlight.js failing to load correctly
* skips survey for default user
* freshens docker build
Utility files in test/nbrowser are moved to core/test/nbrowser, so that gristUtils are available there. This increased the apparent size of the diff as "./" import paths needed replacing with "test/nbrowser/" paths. The utility files are untouched, except for the code to start a server - it now has a small grist-core specific conditional in it.

Summary:
This adds a two-stage Dockerfile for grist-core. The first stage builds
Grist, and the second collects all files needed to run Grist.
The resulting image is about 600 MB which is quite a bit bigger
than it needs to be, but seems fine for now when the first goal is
to establish that people can open and edit Grist files on their
own infrastructure.
The image uses stock python rather than our sandboxed python for now.
