[dataimport] Correctly call rschema(rtype) in SqlGenObjectStore, closes #3694139

[pkg] prepare 3.18.4

[web] Disable 'concat-resources' by default (closes #3670503) It makes debugging harder and it can actually *break* working JS or CSS files. This is the first step towards complete removal.

[testlib] Drop override of assertItemsEqual method The override is not compatible with underlying (standard) method because it builds sets and rely on eid. Closes #3641111.

[rewrite] Fix crash when the main variable doesn't appear in the snippet's vargraph Also, the added test discover another bug once the first has been fixed (erroneous argument given to .rewrite recursive call). Closes #3661918

[ext/rest] Catch SystemExit raised by docutils docutils publisher may raise SystemExit which is not caught by Exception. Closes #3648763.

[entity] User-defined relation to skip for copy has precedence Otherwise permission problems can occur on rtypes not yet skipped Closes #3653459

Make EditController edit_entity method always return an eid In cases the entity was to be created or copied, eid was None hence the method returned None despite the dosctring says the method should always return an eid. Now if the eid variable is None, it is assigned to the newly created entity eid. Closes #3593029.

[migration] Improve update of in-memory schema during 3.18 CWAttribute.defaultval change We weren't updating the schema properly so a bunch of structures still had the old rdef with 'String' as object. That caused failures to add new attributes later in the migration as their default value would be a Binary object but the schema would expect a String. Closes #3683640

[migration] always rebuild infered relation This was skipped for some bad reason (see 12ad88615a12 which introduced the change). Fix for #231956 in Yams is necessary to allow this cset: during a migration, we want to always reinfer relations while allowing explicit redefinition of an infered relation later. Else, we may run the migration with missing parts of the schema (the one that should have been infered). Closes #3685463.

Backout "[web/navigation] use add_onload instead of inline javascript href" This reverts changeset 170e1437948d, for at least two reasons: the PageNavigationSelect component was not updated for the new type of navigation links, and external cubes defining View.page_navigation_url exist in the wild and also got broken navigation links. This reopens #3501626 and closes #3677945.

[test] those are rql tests, not cubicweb (and they break with rql 0.31.5). Remove them.

[source/native] allow many eid creation per .create_eid call (closes #3526594) [jcr: move migration code to bootstrapmigration_repository.py to make sure we stop using the old sequence ASAP]

[pkg] bump the dependency on logilab.database This will allow use of an extended API. Related to #3526594.

[source/native] refactor eid generation code This set of related methods clutters the native source API. It will be better served with a dedicated eid genrator object. Related to #3526594. [jcr: allocate the eid generator in __init__]

Move entity cache from web.request.ConnectionCubicWebRequestBase to repoapi.ClientConnection ResultSet._build_entity relies on an entity cache to avoid going round in circles (stack overflow due to infinite recursion) e.g. in a postcreate script. Clear the cache at commit/rollback time to avoid unexpected side effects; and explicitly clear the cache in a few tests where we mix ORM and RQL using the same connection.

[server] Fix AttributeError in extid2eid Session._tx was renamed in cb87e831c183, use _cnx instead.

[book] Update documentation for new repoapi Quite a few things change in 3.19: - repoapi instead of dbapi - ClientConnection / Connection / Session rework - web authentication process - test APIs Closes #3638793

[utils] the json module is always available It's included since python 2.6, and we don't support earlier versions.

[fti] properly close the ProgressBar Ensures cubicweb-ctl db-rebuild-fti ends its output with a newline.

[serverctl] use repoapi for db-check, add-source, rebuild-fti commands One more step towards getting rid of dbapi.

[devtools] make get_repo_and_cnx return a repoapi ClientConnection And adjust callers accordingly (they need to use it as a context manager to open/close it properly).

[repoapi] Avoid deprecation warnings from session.id Apparently it's called session.sessionid now.

[server] some s/session/cnx/ For merely accessing the database we need a connection, not a session.

Move setting session.mtime from dbapi to web session manager clean_session was broken since the switch away from dbapi on the web side, since session.mtime wasn't being set anywhere.

[web] whitespace cleanup in http_headers.py

[web] implement cross origin resource sharing (CORS) (closes #2491768) Partial implementation that is enough to get started but leaves out some of the advanced features like caching and non-simple methods and headers.

[devtools] add a 'method' argument to RepoAccess.web_request so that one can easily forge a request with any HTTP method. Also a bunch of clone cleanups.
