Summary:
Backstory: to make examples easier to play with, we:
* Add a special FullCopies permission to let anyone fork/copy them regardless of other access rules
* Open the examples in "prefork" mode by default
That means a random person can open an example and already feel like an owner of it. Getting to this point requires some gymnastics on the back end. As soon as the person makes any change to the document they become truly the owner (of their fork), and life is simple for the back end.
But, if that person does "View As" to look at the preforked document, that is a step too far for the back end - a user, with a special somewhat complicated exception allowing them to act as an owner for some purposes, now wants to pretend to be another user. The logic for this on the back end was doable, but looked hard to review and be confident of, with now three identities with subtle nuances in their interrelationship.
So with this diff, if a non-owner attempts to "View As" another user on a prefork, the client will just fork the document first. This is in principle not necessary, but is much simpler from a security perspective.

Summary:
The users shown by the "View As" button are now drawn from more sources:
* There are users the document is shared with. This has been rationalized, the behavior was somewhat erratic. If the user is not an owner of the document, the only user of this kind that will be listed is themselves.
* There are users mentioned in any user attribute table keyed by Email. If name and access columns are present, those are respected, otherwise name is taken from email and access is set to "editors".
* There are example users provided if there are not many other users available.

Summary:
- Update cookie module, to support modern sameSite settings
- Add a new cookie, grist_sid_status with less-sensitive value, to let less-trusted subdomains know if user is signed in
- The new cookie is kept in-sync with the session cookie.
- For a user signed in once, allow auto-signin is appropriate.
- For a user signed in with multiple accounts, show a page to select which account to use.
- Move css stylings for rendering users to a separate module.
Test Plan: Added a test case with a simulated Discourse page to test redirects and account-selection page.

Summary:
- When Public Edit access is enabled, Access Rules page shows a warning and
prevents saving rules.
- When any ACL rules are present, attempts to set Public access to Editor role
get downgraded to Viewer role, with a warning notification.
- No checks are made on the server side, so the combination may be achieved via
the API (but we may block it in the future).
Test Plan: Added a test case.

Summary:
This allows `*SPECIAL:AccessRules` to give read access to the access rules to more users, and `*SPECIAL:FullCopies` to grant download/copy rights to more users.
This diff also changes forks to be owned by the user who forked them (previously they were an editor), since that feels more natural.
Test Plan: Added and updated tests.

Summary:
- When in View-As mode, clicking the Access Rules page now shows a tooltip
with a link to return to normal mode and open the Access Rules page.
- A "revert" button is shown next to the item with the same behavior.
- Implemented hoverTooltip() with various options. (It will have other uses.)
- Simplify creation of links based on UrlState:
- Allow merging with previous urlState using a function
- Add a helper function to merge in aclAsUser parameter.
- Add setHref() method to UrlState
Test Plan:
Added test cases:
- for tooltips generally in test/projects
- for updating UrlState using a callback
- for Access Rules tooltip and button behavior

Summary:
Now as the user an owner might choose to view their document as
is likely to not have access to rules, it is better to start
viewing on the default document page rather than /p/acl.
The "Access Rules" link is grayed out when in "view as" mode for
now (improvements are planned).

Summary:
- Support schema changes in the presence of non-trivial ACL rules.
- Fix update of `aclFormulaParsed` when updating formulas automatically after schema change.
- Filter private metadata in broadcasts, not just fetches. Censorship method is unchanged, just refactored.
- Allow only owners to change ACL rules.
- Force reloads if rules are changed.
- Track rule changes within bundle, for clarity during schema changes - tableId and colId changes create a muddle otherwise.
- Show or forbid pages dynamically depending on user's access to its sections. Logic unchanged, just no longer requires reload.
- Fix calculation of pre-existing rows touched by a bundle, in the presence of schema changes.
- Gray out acl page for non-owners.
