Summary:
When editing data in a table linked to its summary, if the edit results in an
update to the summary table, the cursor was jumping to the first row in the
linked table.
This is visible, for example, in the template
https://templates.getgrist.com/2i9WoHs2oRzK/Credit-Card-Activity-Template-AmEx/p/2
if editing "Amount" in the "ACTIVITY" widget (because that causes an update in
"ACTIVITY [by Category]").
The fix removes the offending line which seems unneeded: group-by columns in
summary tables don't change for an existing row, so there is no need to watch
the summary table for changes.
Test Plan: Adds a test case that fails without the fix, and passes with it.

Summary:
Two summary table widgets that share a source table and have compatible groupby columns can be filter linked. This diff fixes a bug where this linking is broken when the source table is hidden by access rules. The source table data isn't needed for the linking, but its metadata is, and that metadata is censored by GranularAccess. To deal with this:
- `LinkConfig._assertValid` allows blank `tableId`s specifically for linking two summary tables.
- `LinkingState.filterColValues` gets the `colId`s of groupby columns from the summary table columns rather than the source table.
A closely related problem is that the titles of summary tables are incomplete when the source table is hidden, e.g. they just say `[by A]` instead of `Table1 [by A]`. To fix this, the raw view sections of source tables are 'uncensored' in GranularAccess.
Initially I also planned to uncensor the tableId of the source table, which seemed like a better and more general fix for the blank tableId problem. But several parts of client code use blank tableIds to know that a table should be hidden, so they were left as is.
Test Plan: Added an nbrowser test for summary table linking, and a server test for uncensoring the raw view section in GranularAccess.

Summary:
Building:
- Builds no longer wait for tsc for either client, server, or test targets. All use esbuild which is very fast.
- Build still runs tsc, but only to report errors. This may be turned off with `SKIP_TSC=1` env var.
- Grist-core continues to build using tsc.
- Esbuild requires ES6 module semantics. Typescript's esModuleInterop is turned
on, so that tsc accepts and enforces correct usage.
- Client-side code is watched and bundled by webpack as before (using esbuild-loader)
Code changes:
- Imports must now follow ES6 semantics: `import * as X from ...` produces a
module object; to import functions or class instances, use `import X from ...`.
- Everything is now built with isolatedModules flag. Some exports were updated for it.
Packages:
- Upgraded browserify dependency, and related packages (used for the distribution-building step).
- Building the distribution now uses esbuild's minification. babel-minify is no longer used.
Test Plan: Should have no behavior changes, existing tests should pass, and docker image should build too.

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:
Relax the restriction in `selectBy.isValidLink` so that summary tables can be linked by a column like other tables, except the `group` column. See the discussion on https://grist.slack.com/archives/C0234CPPXPA/p1651773623256959 (the replies are on the following message) for more info on this decision.
Tweaked `LinkingState.ts` since linking with summary tables can now involve a column.
Test Plan: Added a new nbrowser test and fixture checking the options to select by given a summary table with a few ref/reflist columns. Manually tested the behaviour of each option.

Summary:
A new way for renaming tables.
- There is a new popup to rename section (where you can also rename the table)
- Renaming/Deleting page doesn't modify/delete the table.
- Renaming table can rename a page if the names match (and the page contains a section with that table).
- User can rename table in Raw Data UI in two ways - either on the listing or by using the section name popup
- As before, there is no way to change tableId - it is derived from a table name.
- When the section name is empty the table name is shown instead.
- White space for section name is allowed (to discuss) - so the user can just paste ' '.
- Empty name for a page is not allowed (but white space is).
- Some bugs related to deleting tables with attached summary tables (and with undoing this operation) were fixed (but not all of them yet).
Test Plan: Updated tests.

Summary:
When linking table to a summary, the linking ended up broken after updating the summary group by columns.
This diff fixes that issue.
There were two issues:
1) some subscriptions were missing due to some .peek() calls instead of directly calling the observable.
2) the LinkingState instance was not being disposed.
3) the filterColValues was not updating after source data table has been loaded
Test Plan: Include new test file.

Summary:
When two widgets are linked by same-record linking, and the source of that link is also filter-linked, then it will pick up default values from its own filter-link source, but the same-record-link target didn't. This fixes that so that default values are filled in intuitively.
Moved the logic of linkingState, linkingFilter, and getDefaultColValues from BaseView.js to LinkingState.ts and ViewSectionRec.ts. In particular getDefaultColValues is now a property of LinkingState which may be copied from the source view section for a same-record link.
Note that `ViewSectionRec.linkingFilter` no longer uses `computerBuilder` and thus doesn't ignore dependencies inside LinkingState any more. I couldn't figure out how to make `linkingFilter` a `pureComputed` (otherwise I get recursion errors) that ignores dependencies. In any case, it's now important to have a dependency on `srcSection.linkingState()` for `getDefaultColValues` to work correctly, so I think this is for the best.
Test Plan: Added a new nbrowser test and fixture.

Summary:
Allows selecting by a reflist in another table. This generalises cursor-linking with a ref column, but now it's filter linking.
Added another case to LinkingState where the source column is a reflist to the target table, filtering by the id column.
Updated convertQueryFromRefs and related functions to handle this since the id column has no column ref. In this case the string 'id' is used instead of a number.
LinkingState also checks if the source value is a reflist and uses that as the list of filter values instead of a single-element list of the cell value.
Indirect linking also works, where the source and target columns both are both references to the same table. This was the plan for a source reflist and target ref column.
I was surprised to see it also works perfectly when both columns are reflists, and it filters rows where there's an intersection!
Adding rows to the target section using the selected source record for default values is iffy. When filtering by row ID, there's no column for defaults, so the new row disappears.
For a source reflist and target ref, the first value of the reflist is the default, which is okayish. When both are reflists, the full source reflist is the default for the target column.
This seems like a bit much but just using the first value seems a bit arbitrary when there's room for all of them?
While doing all this I noticed an unrelated bug which I fixed as I was refactoring. Previously cursor linking based on a reference column did not update the cursor in the link target
when the value of the selected reference cell changed. Now cursor linking uses a floating row model like most other cases to observe the value correctly.
Test Plan: Extended SelectByRefList test and fixture, added previously failing test to RightPanelSelectBy.
