This check should be unnecessary for stores with strong consistency guarantees (virtually everywhere now).

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:
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:
Call ActiveDoc.removeUnusedAttachments every hour using setInterval, and in ActiveDoc.shutdown (which also clears said interval).
Unrelated: small fix to my webhooks code which was creating a redis client on shutdown just to quit it.
Test Plan:
Tweaked DocApi test to remove expired attachments by force-reloading the doc, so that it removes them during shutdown. Extracted a new testing endpoint /verifyFiles to support this test (previously running that code only happened with `/removeUnused?verifyfiles=1`).
Tested the setInterval part manually.

This fixes a problem where a fork could be created, have no changes
made, and then (e.g. if worker rolled over) fail to open with a
`cannot create fork` error. Adds a test that fails priot to this diff.

Summary:
We used tslint earlier, and on switching to eslint, some rules were not
transfered. This moves more rules over, for consistent conventions or helpful
warnings.
- Name private members with a leading underscore.
- Prefer interface over a type alias.
- Use consistent spacing around ':' in type annotations.
- Use consistent spacing around braces of code blocks.
- Use semicolons consistently at the ends of statements.
- Use braces around even one-liner blocks, like conditionals and loops.
- Warn about shadowed variables.
Test Plan: Fixed all new warnings. Should be no behavior changes in code.

Summary:
- Update rules to be more like we've had with tslint
- Switch tsserver plugin to eslint (tsserver makes for a much faster way to lint in editors)
- Apply suggested auto-fixes
- Fix all lint errors and warnings in core/, app/, test/
Test Plan: Some behavior may change subtly (e.g. added missing awaits), relying on existing tests to catch problems.

Summary:
This fixes a two problems:
* A mistake in `KeyedMutex.runExclusive`.
* Logic about saving a document to s3 when the document is found to match what is already there.
`HostedStorageManager.flushDoc` could get caught in a loop if a document was uploaded to s3 and then, without any change to it, marked as dirty. Low level code would detect there was no change and skip the upload; but then the snapshotId could be unknown, causing an error and retries. This diff fixes that problem by discovering the snapshotId on downloads and tracking it. It also corrects a mutex problem that may have been creating the scenario. A small delay is added to `flushDoc` to mitigate the effect of similar problems in future. Exponential backoff would be good, but `flushDoc` is called in some situations where long delays would negatively impact worker shutdown or user work.

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).
