[service] extract session retrieval from "task" closure The session was retrieved there because `set_cnxset` must be called in the same thread as the code using it. We now retrieve the session beforehand and explicitly call `set_cnxset`.

[cubicweb/doc] Add tutorial on data import in CubicWeb. This involves creating the "tutorials/dataimport" directory structure under "cubicweb/doc" and, inside the "dataimport" directory, putting several files: - a ResT file containing the tutorial *per se*; this tutorial addresses the following issues: * creating a CubicWeb schema for representing a given data set (here, the Diseasome RDF data, for illustration purposes); * parsing the data; * importing the data, by using several stores: + the ``RQLObjectStore``, ``NoHookRQLObjectStore`` and ``SQLGenObjectStore`` from the ``dataimport`` module in CubicWeb; + the ``MassiveObjectStore`` from the ``dataimport`` module in the ``dataio`` cube. The tutorial also provides timing benchmarks of the various stores. - a set of Python files illustrating the data import, in the context of Diseasome RDF data parsing: * a Diseasome RDF data parse module, * a Diseasome data import module, * a CubicWeb schema for representing Diseasome data.

[dataimport] Slight message modification in exception handling code.

[dataimport] Handle various data formats when creating buffers from data. :note: On the long run, this should be addressed before, when these data are created.

[dataimport] Add a ``flush`` method for all stores. For ``ObjectStore``, ``RQLObjectStore`` and ``NoHookRQLObjectStore`` the method tries to call the ``commit`` method. For ``SQLGenObjectStore``, the ``flush`` method is basically unchanged with respect to previous changesets.

[dataimport] Uniformize the API across the different stores. This is achieved by modifying the ``relate`` method so that it takes an extra ``**kwargs``. More specifically, ``SQLGenObjectStore``'s ``relate`` method needs the the type of the subject entity which is passed through ``**kwargs`` as the ``subjtype`` keyword argument. Actually, it is the ``add_relation`` method of the ``SQLGenObjectStore`` who needs this argument. However, as this method is not called directly (but via the ``relate`` method), the ``subjtype`` argument is passed to ``add_relation`` via ``relate``. The other stores' ``relate`` methods do not need this extra argument, hence for the other stores ``**kwargs`` is empty. In this manner, the API is unified across the different stores.

[data] Add a CSS for undo UI rendering The nesting of ordered list and unordered list was badly handled. This has gone unoticed becaused it was not used. But the undo feature use this markup to render the changesets. That's why this minor change to ths CSS is introduced.

[web/views] extract cube geocoding (closes #353000)

[c-c list] add an optional argument to the list command (closes #2709703) This optional argument allows to restrict listing to only a given type of items (cubes, instances, configurations).

default base-url now uses fdqn instead of hostname only (closes #2542815)

[editcontroller] a small debugging help (closes #2518980)

[doc] small doc improvement

[doc] fix Pyro url

[doc] fix Narval project url

[tutorial] minor documentation fixes

merge 3.16.x fix in 3.17.x

merge 3.15.x into 3.16.x

server/source/native: fix wrong usage of .lstrip that produce garbled error messages (closes #2777641) Fixed an .rstrip(...) for the general case (untested). Fixed an .lstrip(...) for the sqlite path (tested).

[doc] update 3.17 release note

[migration] fix bug in `CWAttributeAddOp.revertprecommit_event` The `rdefdef` attribute is set during the operation execution. In some the operation crash before this assignment. In such case `revertprecommit` raise an attribute error crashing the whole process and shadowing the original error. This changeset detect and Avoid this situation.

[session] security context directly use transaction object when applicable Most of the security logic have been moved on Transaction anyway.

[session] move context manager logic in the security context manager The `init_security` and `reset_security` method have no other user that the context manager itself. Having dedicated public function is not useful.

[session] hook control context directly use transaction object when applicable Most of the hooks control logic have been moved on Transaction anyway.

[session] move context manager logic in the hook controls context manager The `init_hooks_mode_categories` and `reset_hooks_mode_categories` have no other user that the context manager itself. Having dedicated public function is not useful.

[session] drop the useless set_hooks_mode method It has not external user and trivial code

[session/transaction] move most undo support into transaction A small part that need repo access has not been moved into transaction yet.

[session] simplify mode property We can delegate very thing to transaction utility

[session/transaction] pass the session object to the Transaction __init__ This simplify access to variables. As we are moving more and more logic and states in the Transaction it will greatly helps in future commit.

[session] use a dedicated class to track cnxset We introduce a new CnxSetTracker to track `cnxset` used by Transaction and allows to wait for them. This new class does not use Thread ID not thread joining to work. This allows to use multiple transaction per thread and a transaction in multiple thread. The class itself is totally threadsafe by the Transaction is still not thread safe. The old _threads_in_transaction attribute is dropped in favor of a new logic based on this object. The registration of cnxset used is not done by the Transaction itself. tx.cnset is a property handling the Consistency of its value with the CnxSetTracker instance. Note: The CnxSetTracker instance only track transaction id, not transaction itself, So not reference cycle are created.

[session] cleanup Transaction.cnxset The attribute should always be there. It is None when not cnxset exists.

[session] drop useless getter and setter for security Those function have very few user and does not anything fancy. Internal user now access tx.read/write_security directly. External user have been blessed with a writable property. They are only interested in the write part of they did not used the return of the removed function. They access it through the session since I prefer the external world to not be aware of Transaction yet.

[session/transaction] move read_security subtlety in transaction This is transaction data, itshould be handled by the transaction itself.

[transaction] initialize dbapi_request in __init__ There is not reason to have it implicitly declared. The attribute is renamed to match its public name.

[session] drop pre-3.7 api on session Dropping of API deprecated since 3.7 decided in #2772958

[transaction] use set operation in the hook control code We use direct operator on set instead of looping by hand, This simplify the codes.

[session/transaction] move hook management in transaction itself This is transaction level code.

[session] allow writable tx_attr and use it for commit_state This keep clarifying the code.

[session/transaction] move add operation in session code

[session/transaction] move entity life utility on transaction This access transaction related data and therefor should live in transaction.

[transaction] small simplification in ecache code A single assignation is simpler.

[session/transaction] move entity cache management on session A new utility method is added for that. It is similar to the one used for attribute access. code is copy pasted as his. Function documentation is added.

[session] have a nice helper function to forward access to session This allows a lighter and clearer code. This will also ease the addition of deprecation warning in the future.

[session] drop dead code session._tx is never None. New transaction are created if necessary.

[session] use tx.data directly in session code.

[transaction] rename transaction_data to data Transaction.transaction_data is redundant. A transaction_data property is left for backward compatibility. Deprecation mechanism will come in later changeset

[session] document Session._tx

[session] split session creation from default session assignation This is the first step for more independence for Transaction.

[session] make session lock reentrant We are going to use it for other session related business. It is renamed from _closed_lock to _lock in the same move.

[session] document set_tx

[session] rename txstore variable to tx This is a more accurate name
