Summary:
for users who don't automatically have deep rights
to the document, provide them with attachment metadata only
for rows they have access to. This is a little tricky to
do efficiently. We provide attachment metadata when an
individual table is fetched, rather than on initial document
load, so we don't block that load on a full document scan.
We provide attachment metadata to a client when we see that
we are shipping rows mentioning particular attachments,
without making any effort to keep track of the metadata they
already have.

Summary:
- New /webhooks event that lists all webhooks in a document (available for owners),
- Monitoring webhooks usage and saving it in memory or Redis,
- Loosening _usubscribe API endpoint, so that the information returned from the /webhook endpoint is enough to unsubscribe,
- Owners can remove webhook without the unsubscribe key.
The endpoint lists all webhooks that are registered in a document, not just webhooks from a single table.
There are two status fields. First for the webhook, second for the last request attempt.
Webhook can have 5 statuses: 'idle', 'sending', 'retrying', 'postponed', 'error', which roughly describes what the
sendLoop is currently doing. The 'error' status describes a situation when all request attempts failed and the queue needs
to be drained, so some requests were dropped.
The last request status can only be: 'success', 'failure' or 'rejected'. Rejected means that the last batch was dropped because the
queue was too long.
Test Plan: New and updated tests

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:
- Upgrades to build-related packages:
- Upgrade typescript, related libraries and typings.
- Upgrade webpack, eslint; add tsc-watch, node-dev, eslint_d.
- Build organization changes:
- Build webpack from original typescript, transpiling only; with errors still
reported by a background tsc watching process.
- Typescript-related changes:
- Reduce imports of AWS dependencies (very noticeable speedup)
- Avoid auto-loading global @types
- Client code is now built with isolatedModules flag (for safe transpilation)
- Use allowJs to avoid copying JS files manually.
- Linting changes
- Enhance Arcanist ESLintLinter to run before/after commands, and set up to use eslint_d
- Update eslint config, and include .eslintignore to avoid linting generated files.
- Include a bunch of eslint-prompted and eslint-generated fixes
- Add no-unused-expression rule to eslint, and fix a few warnings about it
- Other items:
- Refactor cssInput to avoid circular dependency
- Remove a bit of unused code, libraries, dependencies
Test Plan: No behavior changes, all existing tests pass. There are 30 tests fewer reported because `test_gpath.py` was removed (it's been unused for years)

Helps with cases such as https://grist.slack.com/archives/C02EGJ1FUCV/p1652196111066649?thread_ts=1651656433.171889&cid=C02EGJ1FUCV
When a user unsubscribes from a webhook, the secret URL is deleted from the database, but as long as the doc was open it would continue retrying pending requests still in the queue for a long time, using the locally cached value without noticing the effect of unsubscribing. This change allows unsubscribing to have an effect more quickly so that problematic events can be removed from the queue.

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.

Use MetaTableData, MetaRowRecord, and getMetaTable in more places.
Test Plan: Mostly it just has to compile. Tested manually that types are being checked more strictly now, e.g. by adding a typo to property names. Some type casting has also been removed.

Uses the new alwaysPreserveColIds option for action summaries in Triggers.ts.
Triggers.ts is now responsible for generating the summary to make it easy to pass this option. The value of the option is just all colIds mentioned in triggers configured in this document.
Test Plan: Tested adding 200 rows to a subscribed table to ensure the events are not truncated. Also tests batching nicely.

Summary:
Push webhook events to redis queue with key based on docId.
Remove events from redis after sending using LTRIM.
Put failed events back on the end of the queue under normal circumstances.
When the event queue gets too long:
- Wait until it gets consumed before continuing.
- Drop failed events (i.e. don't put them back on the end of the queue)
- Limit webhook retries to 5
Test Plan: Tested that interactions with redis are as expected using redis MONITOR command.

Summary:
- Puts events on a queue in memory and ensures they are sent in the order they were generated.
- Makes the caller (Sharing.ts) wait until changed records have been fetched from the DB, but allows it to continue after while remaining work happens asynchronously.
- Gathers all new webhook events into an array so they can be backed up to the queue on redis in a single command (in a future diff).
- Uses changes in isReady to determine event type, no more 'existed before'
The structure of the code has changed a lot, so I think the scope of the diff needs to stop here. Lots of work is still deferred in TODOs.
Test Plan: Updated existing test. Actually dropped testing of retry on failures and slowness because it no longer made sense to keep that as part of the current test, so a new test for that will be added in a future diff.

correctly. This fixes it.
- Also adds UIRowId type for row IDs which includes the special 'new' row. It's
already been used in places as `number|'new'`, this diff gives it a name usable in app/common

See https://grist.quip.com/VKd3ASF99ezD/Outgoing-Webhooks
- 2 new DocApi endpoints: _subscribe and _unsubscribe, not meant to be user friendly or publicly documented. _unsubscribe should be given the response from _subscribe in the body, e.g:
```
$ curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer 8fd4dc59ecb05ab29ae5a183c03101319b8e6ca9" "http://localhost:8080/api/docs/6WYa23FqWxGNe3AR6DLjCJ/tables/Table2/_subscribe" -H "Content-type: application/json" -d '{"url": "https://webhook.site/a916b526-8afc-46e6-aa8f-a625d0d83ec3", "eventTypes": ["add"], "isReadyColumn": "C"}'
{"unsubscribeKey":"3246f158-55b5-4fc7-baa5-093b75ffa86c","triggerId":2,"webhookId":"853b4bfa-9d39-4639-aa33-7d45354903c0"}
$ curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer 8fd4dc59ecb05ab29ae5a183c03101319b8e6ca9" "http://localhost:8080/api/docs/6WYa23FqWxGNe3AR6DLjCJ/tables/Table2/_unsubscribe" -H "Content-type: application/json" -d '{"unsubscribeKey":"3246f158-55b5-4fc7-baa5-093b75ffa86c","triggerId":2,"webhookId":"853b4bfa-9d39-4639-aa33-7d45354903c0"}'
{"success":true}
```
- New DB entity Secret to hold the webhook URL and unsubscribe key
- New document metatable _grist_Triggers subscribes to table changes and points to a secret to use for a webhook
- New file Triggers.ts processes action summaries and uses the two new tables to send webhooks.
- Also went on a bit of a diversion and made a typesafe subclass of TableData for metatables.
I think this is essentially good enough for a first diff, to keep the diffs manageable and to talk about the overall structure. Future diffs can add tests and more robustness using redis etc. After this diff I can also start building the Zapier integration privately.
Test Plan: Tested manually: see curl commands in summary for an example. Payloads can be seen in https://webhook.site/#!/a916b526-8afc-46e6-aa8f-a625d0d83ec3/0b9fe335-33f7-49fe-b90b-2db5ba53382d/1 . Great site for testing webhooks btw.
