Summary:
If linking state changes multiple times frequently the code that simulates async operation is
wrongly debounced, which causes inverted order of execution. This fix makes sure that only the last
call to filter function is used.

Summary:
When a widget `A` is selected by a widget `B` so that `A` is filtered, adding a new row to `A` uses the values in the selected row of `B` and the columns relevant to the linking as default values for the new row. This ensures that the new row matches the current linking filter and remains visible. However this would previously cause a sandbox error when one of the linking columns was a formula column, which doesn't allow setting values. This diff ignores formula columns when picking default values.
Since the value of the formula column in the new row typically won't match the linking filter, extra measures are needed to avoid the new row immediately disappearing. Regular filters already have a mechanism for this, but I didn't manage to extend it to also work for linking. Thanks @dsagal for creating `UnionRowSource` (originally in D4017) which is now used as the solution for temporarily exempting rows from both kinds of filtering.
While testing, I also came across another bug in linking summary tables that caused incorrect filtering, which I fixed with some changes to `DynamicQuerySet`.
Test Plan: Extended an nbrowser test, which both tests for the main change as well as the secondary bugfix.

Summary:
Adding a new method `setCursorPos` in the widget API, and a new configuration option for the ready message `allowSelectBy` that exposes custom widgets in the `Select by` dropdown.
With this, a custom widget can control the position of the linked widgets and is able to change the column in the creator panel.
Test Plan: Added new test. Existing tests should pass.

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.

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.

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:
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.

Summary:
Prefix keys of `LinkingState.filterColValues` with `_contains:` when the source column is a ChoiceList or ReferenceList.
This is parsed out to make a boolean `isContainsFilter` which is kept in each value of `QueryRefs.filterTuples` (previously `filterPairs`).
Then when converting back in `convertQueryFromRefs` we construct `Query.contains: {[colId: string]: boolean}`.
Finally `getFilterFunc` uses `Query.contains` to decide what kind of filtering to do.
This is not pretty, but the existing code is already very complex and it was hard to find something that wouldn't require touching loads of code just to make things compile.
Test Plan: Added a new nbrowser test and fixture, tests that selecting a source table by summary tables grouped by a choicelist column, non-list column, and both all filter the correct data.

- No longer convert data columns to formula by typing a leading "=". Instead,
show a tooltip with a link to click if the conversion was intended.
- No longer convert a formula column to data by deleting its formula. Leave the
column empty instead.
- Offer the option "Convert formula to data" in column menu for formulas.
- Offer the option to "Clear column"
- If a subset of rows is shown, offer "Clear values" and "Clear entire column".
- Add logic to detect when a view shows a subset of all rows.
- Factor out showTooltip() from showTransientTooltip().
- Add a bunch of test cases to cover various combinations (there are small
variations in options depending on whether all rows are shown, on whether
multiple columns are selected, and whether columns include data columns).
Test Plan: Added a bunch of test cases.

Summary:
After an import from inside a document, one minute later, an important
QuerySet would get disposed, leaving the view section in a bad state,
and manifesting as JS errors on subsequent operations. (Might not
*always* happen because switching pages would prevent it from
manifesting, I think.)
Bad state that I've seen after transforms is probably explainable as
this bug, which is unrelated. Reproduction was hard because who knew one
had to wait a minute?!
Test Plan:
Added a unittest for the fix in QuerySet, and a browser test that
fails without the fix (JS errors, bad state), and passes with.
