a1c62f32f4 (core) Fix selecting new row in chain of filter links
Summary:
When the 'new' row of a table is selected, another table filter linked to the first shows no data. This diff ensures that a third table filtered by the second also shows no data, i.e. that it behaves the same as if the second table was also on the 'new' row. Video of the bug: https://grist.slack.com/archives/C069RUP71/p1692622810900179

The functional code is copied almost verbatim from https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-core/pull/666 by @jvorob which was working correctly. A comment there mentioned a possible bug where:

> ...you can have the grayed-out "No row selected" text from disableEditing but still have rows showing up in the section. Haven't been able to reproduce...

I noticed this behaviour when I copied only part of the fix, but it disappeared after copying the whole thing, so it seems likely to me that this is why it couldn't be reproduced.

Test Plan: Added a new nbrowser test with a new fixture, which also tests filter link chains and selecting the new row more generally, since I couldn't find other tests of this.

Bidirectional Linking (#622)
Allows bidirectional / cyclic linking for same-record cursor links.
This should allow multiple sections to all synchronize their cursors,
such that clicking in any one of them will move all the others.

Works even if some sections in the cycle have rows filtered out (the 
filtered-out sections might desync their cursors, but the correct cursor
position will still propagate downstream, and they'll re-sync if clicking on
a row that is present in them)

Under the hood, each cursor has a _lastEditedAt counter, updated when
a user's action changes the cursor in a section, such that we can always
tell which section was touched most recently. This is used to resolve
conflicts stably when dealing with cycles or chains of cursor-links.

Updated selectBy and recursiveMoveToCursorPos to handle cycles

Updated tests for selectBy behavior

However, main bidirectional-linking tests are not in this commit, they'll come in a subsequent PR

Linkstate refactor (#609)
* Linkingstate Refactor, and displaying link info in rightpanel

Big refactor to LinkingState
    Collects descriptive/user-facing labels into FilterState
    Unifies/cleans up some logic
    Adds LinkTypeDescription, a string enum which can be used
    to easily switch/case between various cases of linking, and
    codifies the logic in one place (currently only used for linkInfo)

Adds Link info to creator panel, near SelectBy dropdown

Bugfix: Disables linking from Attachment columns
Bugfix/Behavior change: changed linking with empty RefLists to better
match behavior of refs.
    for context: Linking by a blank Ref filters to show records with a
    blank value for that Ref. Previously this didn't work with RefLists. 
    Linking from a blank refList would show no records 
    (except in some cases involving summary tables)
    Fixed this so that linking by a blank val consistently means "show
    all records where the corresponding col is blank"

bc54a6646e (core) Filter rows based on linked widgets when exporting view
Summary:
Fixes a problem reported here: https://community.getgrist.com/t/exporting-the-records-in-a-linked-view/2556/4

The download CSV/Excel link now contains an additional `linkingFilter` URL parameter containing JSON-encoded `filters` and `operations`. This object is originally created in the frontend in `LinkingState`, and previously it was only used internally in the frontend. It would make its way via `QuerySetManager` to `QuerySet.getFilterFunc` where the actual filtering logic happened. Now most of that logic has been moved to a similar function in `common`. The new function works with a new interface `ColumnGettersByColId` which abstract over the different ways data is accessed in the client and server in this context. There's no significant new logic in the diff, just refactoring and wiring.

Test Plan: Expanded two `nbrowser/SelectBy*.ts` test suites to also check the contents of a downloaded CSV in different linking scenarios.

75d979abdb (core) Fixing cursor position for filtered linked section.
Summary:
In a selector table, when a selected row is filtered out of view, linked widgets should update based on the newly selected row.
There were a few bugs that contributed to this wrong behavior:
- Gridview wasn't subscribing to the current row id, and the row with id 'new' was being converted to the first row
- Cursor was keeping track of the currently selected row id, it was hiding a problem behind the proper rowIndex
- Undo/redo somehow leveraged the wrong rowId from the cursor during the position restore.

The `No data` text was also changed to be more meaningful.

Test Plan: Added and updated.

82eb5b3f76 (core) Fix bug causing cursor to jump to first row in a widget linked to a summary table.
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.

ecf2fdf71a (core) Fix summary table titles and linking when source table is hidden by ACL
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.

51ff72c15e (core) Faster builds all around.
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.

1c89d08ea3 (core) Add a row to summary tables grouped by list column(s) corresponding to empty lists
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.

6f00106d7c (core) Raw renames
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.

f110ffdafd (core) Follow chain of same-record links for getDefaultColValues
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.

29dd33a45c (core) Add other direction of linking by reflist
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.
