Summary:
This is a first pass at snapshot support using the MinIO client, suitable
for use against a MinIO server or other S3-compatible storage (including
the original AWS S3).
In Grist Labs monorepo tests, it is run against AWS S3. It can be manually
configured to run again a MinIO server, and these tests pass. There are no
core tests just yet.
Next step would be to move external storage tests to core, and configure
workflow to run tests against a transient MinIO server.
Test Plan: applied same tests as for Azure and S3 (via AWS client)

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:
This adds support for gvisor sandboxing in core. When Grist is run outside of a container, regular gvisor can be used (if on linux), and will run in rootless mode. When Grist is run inside a container, docker's default policy is insufficient for running gvisor, so a fork of gvisor is used that has less defence-in-depth but can run without privileges.
Sandboxing is automatically turned on in the Grist core container. It is not turned on automatically when built from source, since it is operating-system dependent.
This diff may break a complex method of testing Grist with gvisor on macs that I may have been the only person using. If anyone complains I'll find time on a mac to fix it :)
This diff includes a small "easter egg" to force document loads, primarily intended for developer use.

This adds a `user:delete` target to the `cli.sh` tool. The desired user will be deleted from our database, from sendgrid, and from cognito.
There is code for scrubbing the user from team sites, but it isn't yet activated, I'm leaving finalizing and writing tests for it for follow-up.

Summary:
* Remove adjustSession hack, interfering with loading docs under saml.
* Allow the anonymous user to receive an empty list of workspaces for
the merged org.
* Behave better on first page load when org is in path - this used to
fail because of lack of cookie. This is very visible in grist-core,
as a failure to load localhost:8484 on first visit.
* Mark cookie explicitly as SameSite=Lax to remove a warning in firefox.
* Make errorPages available in grist-core.
This changes the default behavior of grist-core to now start off in
anonymous mode, with an explicit sign-in step available. If SAML is not configured,
the sign-in operation will unconditionally sign the user in as a default
user, without any password check or other security. The user email is
taken from GRIST_DEFAULT_EMAIL if set. This is a significant change, but
makes anonymous mode available in grist-core (which is convenient
for testing) and makes behavior with and without SAML much more consistent.
Test Plan: updated test; manual (time to start adding grist-core tests though!)

Summary:
* Moves essential plugins to grist-core, so that basic imports (e.g. csv) work.
* Adds support for a `GRIST_SANDBOX_FLAVOR` flag that can systematically override how the data engine is run.
- `GRIST_SANDBOX_FLAVOR=pynbox` is "classic" nacl-based sandbox.
- `GRIST_SANDBOX_FLAVOR=docker` runs engines in individual docker containers. It requires an image specified in `sandbox/docker` (alternative images can be named with `GRIST_SANDBOX` flag - need to contain python and engine requirements). It is a simple reference implementation for sandboxing.
- `GRIST_SANDBOX_FLAVOR=unsandboxed` runs whatever local version of python is specified by a `GRIST_SANDBOX` flag directly, with no sandboxing. Engine requirements must be installed, so an absolute path to a python executable in a virtualenv is easiest to manage.
- `GRIST_SANDBOX_FLAVOR=gvisor` runs the data engine via gvisor's runsc. Experimental, with implementation not included in grist-core. Since gvisor runs on Linux only, this flavor supports wrapping the sandboxes in a single shared docker container.
* Tweaks some recent express query parameter code to work in grist-core, which has a slightly different version of express (smoke test doesn't catch this since in Jenkins core is built within a workspace that has node_modules, and wires get crossed - in a dev environment the problem on master can be seen by doing `buildtools/build_core.sh /tmp/any_path_outside_grist`).
The new sandbox options do not have tests yet, nor does this they change the behavior of grist servers today. They are there to clean up and consolidate a collection of patches I've been using that were getting cumbersome, and make it easier to run experiments.
I haven't looked closely at imports beyond core.

Summary:
In the past, Cognito sign-ins were intended to give authorization to some AWS
services (like SQS); various tokens were stored in the session for this
purpose. This is no longer used. Profiles from Cognito now serve a limited
purpose: first-time initialization of name and picture, and keeping track of
which login method was used. For these remaining needs, ScopedSession is
sufficient.
Test Plan:
Existing test pass. Tested manually that logins work with Google and
Email + Password. Tested manually that on a clean database, name and picture
are picked up from a Google Login.

Summary:
* Adds a `SELF_HYPERLINK()` python function, with optional keyword arguments to set a label, the page, and link parameters.
* Adds a `UUID()` python function, since using python's uuid.uuidv4 hits a problem accessing /dev/urandom in the sandbox. UUID makes no particular quality claims since it doesn't use an audited implementation. A difficult to guess code is convenient for some use cases that `SELF_HYPERLINK()` enables.
The canonical URL for a document is mutable, but older versions generally forward. So for implementation simplicity the document url is passed it on sandbox creation and remains fixed throughout the lifetime of the sandbox. This could and should be improved in future.
The URL is passed into the sandbox as a `DOC_URL` environment variable.
The code for creating the URL is factored out of `Notifier.ts`. Since the url is a function of the organization as well as the document, some rejiggering is needed to make that information available to DocManager.
On document imports, the new document is registered in the database slightly earlier now, in order to keep the procedure for constructing the URL in different starting conditions more homogeneous.

Summary:
Adds an "enter safe mode" option and explanation in modal that appears when a document fails to load, if user is owner. If "enter safe mode" is selected, document is reloaded on server in a special mode. Currently, the only difference is that if the acl rules fail to load, they are replaced with a fallback that grants full access to owners and no access to anyone else. An extra tag is shown to mark the document as safe mode, with an "x" for cancelling safe mode.
There are other ways a document could fail to load than just acl rules, so this is just a start.

Summary:
Deliberate changes:
* save snapshots to s3 prior to migrations.
* label migration snapshots in s3 metadata.
* avoid pruning migration snapshots for a month.
Opportunistic changes:
* Associate document timezone with snapshots, so pruning can respect timezones.
* Associate actionHash/Num with snapshots.
* Record time of last change in snapshots (rather than just s3 upload time, which could be a while later).
This ended up being a biggish change, because there was nowhere ideal to put tags (list of possibilities in diff).
