Summary:
This switches to using stdin/stdout for RPC calls to the sandbox, rather than specially allocated side channels. Plain text error information remains on stderr.
The motivation for the change is to simplify use of sandboxes, some of which support extra file descriptors and some of which don't.
The new style of communication is made the default, but I'm not committed to this, just that it be easy to switch to if needed. It is possible I'll need to switch the communication method again in the near future.
One reason not to make this default would be windows support, which is likely broken since stdin/stdout are by default in text mode.

Summary:
Run JS with a value for SANDBOX_BUFFERS_DIR, then run test_replay in python with the same value to replay just the python code.
See test_replay.py for more info.
Test Plan:
Record some data, e.g. `SANDBOX_BUFFERS_DIR=manual npm start` or `SANDBOX_BUFFERS_DIR=server ./test/testrun.sh server`.
Then run `SANDBOX_BUFFERS_DIR=server python -m unittest test_replay` from within `core/sandbox/grist` to replay the input from the JS.
Sample of the output will look like this:
```

Replaces https://phab.getgrist.com/D2854
Refactoring of NSandbox:
- Simplify arguments to NSandbox.spawn. Only half the arguments were used depending on the flavour, adding a layer of confusion.
- Ensure the same environment variables are passed to both flavours of sandbox
- Simplify passing down environment variables.
Implement deterministic mode with libfaketime and a seeded random instance.
- Include static prebuilt libfaketime.so.1, may need another solution in future for other platforms.
Recording pycalls:
- Add script recordDocumentPyCalls.js to open a single document outside of tests.
- Refactor out recordPyCalls.ts to support various uses.
- Add afterEach hook to save all pycalls from server tests under $PYCALLS_DIR
- Make docTools usable without mocha.
- Add useLocalDoc and loadLocalDoc for loading non-fixture documents
Test Plan:
Made a document with formulas NOW() and UUID()
Compare two document openings in normal mode:
diff <(test/recordDocumentPyCalls.js samples/d4W6NrzCMNVSVD6nWgNrGC.grist /dev/stdout) \
<(test/recordDocumentPyCalls.js samples/d4W6NrzCMNVSVD6nWgNrGC.grist /dev/stdout)

`export DETERMINISTIC_MODE=1` and repeat. diff is empty!

Summary:
* adds a smoke test to grist-core
* fixes a problem with highlight.js failing to load correctly
* skips survey for default user
* freshens docker build
Utility files in test/nbrowser are moved to core/test/nbrowser, so that gristUtils are available there. This increased the apparent size of the diff as "./" import paths needed replacing with "test/nbrowser/" paths. The utility files are untouched, except for the code to start a server - it now has a small grist-core specific conditional in it.

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.
