Raphaël Bosi 60f5964c64 Run front components in a sandboxed opaque-origin iframe (#22588)
Front components run untrusted third-party React in a Web Worker. That
worker previously shared the host origin, so it could reach
origin-scoped storage (the metadata-store IndexedDB, the
`twenty-sign-out` BroadcastChannel), cookies, and same-origin resources.

This runs the worker inside a `sandbox="allow-scripts"` (no
`allow-same-origin`) iframe, giving it an opaque origin where the
browser denies localStorage, cookies, IndexedDB, and BroadcastChannel
outright. The worker is kept inside the iframe (rather than a bare
iframe) so untrusted code always runs off the main thread; the
remote-dom render path is unchanged.

- **Transport:** host ↔ iframe ↔ worker over a re-transferred
`MessagePort` (`ThreadMessagePort`); a small bootstrap script is inlined
into the iframe via `srcdoc` (bundled at build time by a prebuild step)
and relays the port to the worker it spawns. Messages across the
boundary use a typed discriminated union with a single parse/guard.
- **Network:** under the opaque origin, direct fetches to the Twenty API
would be `Origin: null`, so the component source and SDK modules are
fetched through an allowlisted, credential-omitting `hostFetch` bridge
and blobbed inside the worker. The allowlist is single-sourced on the
host (http(s) origins only) and carried in the render context. The
bridge is mandatory (rendering fails closed if it is missing), refuses
redirects except for GET/HEAD to the known file-storage URLs, and caps
response body size.
- **SDK loading:** SDK client modules now load inside the worker through
the bridge, replacing the host-side SDK-blob state/effect/provider with
a pure `getSdkClientUrls` URL builder.
- **Isolation tests:** a unit test locks the sandbox attribute
(`allow-scripts`, never `allow-same-origin`); a browser test asserts the
worker actually gets an opaque origin with storage denied, probing
cookies by writing one rather than reading an empty jar.

Also adds a "List Companies" seed front component that queries workspace
data via the SDK client (exercising the bridge end-to-end),
single-sources the command-menu confirmation-modal result event name and
detail type in `twenty-shared` (previously a hand-synced duplicate), and
decomposes the renderer (bridge, sandbox, worker orchestration) into
small single-purpose utils with unit tests.

## How it works

sequenceDiagram
    autonumber
    participant Host as Host window (twenty-front · host origin)
    participant Frame as Sandboxed iframe (allow-scripts · opaque origin)
    participant Worker as Worker (untrusted component · opaque origin)
    participant API as Twenty API (host origin)

    rect rgb(238,242,248)
    Note over Host,Worker: 1 — Boot handshake
    Host->>Frame: create iframe sandbox="allow-scripts", srcdoc = inlined bootstrap script
    Host->>Host: MessageChannel + ThreadMessagePort(port1)<br/>exports = host API + hostFetch
    Frame-->>Host: READY
    Host->>Frame: INIT + transfer port2
    Frame->>Worker: spawn inlined Worker + re-transfer port2
    Worker->>Worker: ThreadMessagePort(port)<br/>exports = render / updateContext
    Note over Host,Worker: Port now entangles Host ↔ Worker directly
    end

    rect rgb(246,240,248)
    Note over Host,Worker: 2 — Render
    Host->>Worker: render(connection, { componentUrl, sdkClientUrls, hostFetchOrigins, token })
    Worker->>Worker: override globalThis.fetch<br/>(Twenty origins → hostFetch)
    end

    rect rgb(248,244,238)
    Note over Worker,API: 3 — Network via hostFetch bridge (opaque Origin:null cannot reach the API directly)
    Worker->>Host: hostFetch(componentUrl, Bearer)
    Host->>Host: origin allowlist + credentials:'omit'
    Host->>API: fetch(componentUrl)
    API-->>Host: source
    Host-->>Worker: { status, headers, body }
    Worker->>Host: hostFetch(sdkClientUrls.core / .metadata)
    Host-->>Worker: SDK module sources
    Worker->>Worker: blob each source in its own opaque origin → import() → run untrusted React
    end

    rect rgb(238,248,242)
    Note over Worker,Host: 4 — Render mirror
    Worker->>Host: remote-dom mutations (RemoteConnection)
    Host->>Host: RemoteReceiver → RemoteRootRenderer → host DOM
    end

    Note over Worker: Opaque origin ⇒ browser denies localStorage,<br/>cookies, IndexedDB, BroadcastChannel
