The motivation for supporting an alternative to WebSockets is that while all browsers supported by Grist offer native WebSocket support, some networking environments do not allow WebSocket traffic.
Engine.IO is used as the underlying implementation of HTTP long polling. The Grist client will first attempt a regular WebSocket connection, using the same protocol and endpoints as before, but fall back to long polling using Engine.IO if the WebSocket connection fails.
Include these changes:
- CORS websocket requests are now rejected as a stronger security measure. This shouldn’t affect anything in practice; but previously it could be possible to make unauthenticated websocket requests from another origin.
- GRIST_HOST variable no longer affects CORS responses (also should not affect anything in practice, as it wasn't serving a useful purpose)
Summary:
When access rules are in effect on a document, non-owners currently
don't have access to snapshots. Previously when the document history
tab is opened in this situation, an error toast would appear, along
with a small message that was hard to see in dark mode. This change
removes the toast and improves the message somewhat.
Test Plan: updated test

Summary:
- Add InstallAdmin class to identify users who can manage Grist installation.
This is overridable by different Grist flavors (e.g. different in SaaS).
It generalizes previous logic used to decide who can control Activation
settings (e.g. enable telemetry).
- Implement a basic Admin Panel at /admin, and move items previously in the
"Support Grist" page into the "Support Grist" section of the Admin Panel.
- Replace "Support Grist" menu items with "Admin Panel" and show only to admins.
- Add "Support Grist" links to Github sponsorship to user-account menu.
- Add "Support Grist" button to top-bar, which
- for admins, replaces the previous "Contribute" button and reopens the "Support Grist / opt-in to telemetry" nudge (unchanged)
- for everyone else, links to Github sponsorship
- in either case, user can dismiss it.
Test Plan: Shuffled some test cases between Support Grist and the new Admin Panel, and added some new cases.

This adds a docker.io registry name, the lack of which will otherwise
cause image building to fail if podman is used rather than docker.
Common images like node are automatically aliased and don't need
the registry name. Based on a problem reported in discord.

- A new share menu for published form widgets, with options to copy a link or embed code.
- Forms can now have multiple sections.
- Form widgets now indicate when publishing is unavailable (e.g. in forks or unsaved documents).
- General improvements to form styling.
Test Plan: Browser tests.

Summary:
- Also move out reused helper methods out of test suites, to avoid inadvertently including some test suites into other suites.
- Add logging around onNewTab since that seems related to test failures.
- Skip several tests in Billing that fail particularly often.
Test Plan: Checking that tests pass, and how many. Compared to the last successful run on master, there are 4 new skips (this diff), and 3 fewer test cases (a test case run in triplicate was removed in https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-core/pull/899)

The README document referenced a `GRIST_HOME_INCLUDE_STATIC` env variable, which seem to be used nowhere.
Also seem to be confusing with GRIST_SERVERS which can be set to `home,static`.
Summary:
Drag-and-drop was interfering with text selection in inputs for form
labels and paragraphs.
Test Plan: Manual.

Summary:
1. Set pageLoad timeout to 10s (default is 5 minutes)
2. Disable chrome's prompts to save credit card info, which may be
affecting Stripe pages
3. Periodically record of logs and screenshots for the most-failing test case
so that whenever it fails in a bad way (timeout with no indication of
what's wrong), we can hope to find out what's wrong.
Test Plan: Planning to celebrate if Billing tests pass.

Summary: Using the lookup shortcut in the add column menu to find a max or min value is a buggy experience. MAX and MIN returns 0 for empty collections which can be interpreted as 1970.1.1 in date or date time columns. It is better to just return None (empty cell) when there are no records.

Site access was being used to show or hide form widget buttons. This meant
that users granted owner access to a document couldn't see buttons to
publish/unpublish or share a form. Now, document access is used instead.

This mentions how to enable the boot page diagnostics in the README. Ideally, something like the boot page would be available on initial installation without doing anything special, but that can come later.
This check should be unnecessary for stores with strong consistency guarantees (virtually everywhere now).

Summary:
- UI now trims column rules before saving.
- When rules are loaded, bits that aren't applicable to a resource get ignored.
This should fix the incorrect behavior in existing docs without a migration.
Test Plan:
- Added test of UI, that it now sends trimmed rules
- Added a unitteset of new trimPermissions() function
- Add test of fixed interpretation of existing rules: now only permission bits
applicable to a resource get respected. I.e. create/delete/schemaEdit are
ignored in column rules, and schemaEdit is also ignored in table rules.
- Note that DuplicateTest was affected: updated on the assumption that
schemaEdit still can't actually apply at a table level.
