In preparation for switching LMS/Studio over
from serving legacy courseware URLs in certain
places (for example, resume_course_url) to serving
learning micro-frontend URLs.

Waffle classes no longer have namespaces. All features are moved to the
WaffleFlag/WaffleSwitch classes.
Here we use the edx_toggles.toggles.__future__ API, which is available
in 1.2.0. This means that we don't have to upgrade edx-toggles. We
should remove the __future__ imports as soon as we upgrade to 2.0.0.
This is required because edx-platform uses the waffle API from
completion, which itself depends on edx-toggles. So if we change
edx-toggles import paths, we also need to upgrade our usage of
completion here.
Previously, dismissing one course update would disable all future
updates. But that feels a bit limiting.
Instead, these are the new rules:
- If the newest update has not been dismissed yet, it gets displayed.
- If the newest update has been dismissed, we display nothing.
- Editing the newest update will cause it to be displayed again.
- New updates get displayed, even if previous updates were dismissed.
This commit includes a light refactoring and addition of some utility
methods to help manage the above.
It also notes that the learning MFE does not use the "latest_update"
waffle option, which controls the labeling of the update message.

This also has an initial use case for Personalized Learner Schedules
to add CTAs to capa and vertical blocks to allow users to shift their
course deadlines.
These are expensive, read-only web requests. Unfortunately,
middleware adds writes, and we currently run with view-level
transactions enabled by default. Holding those long transactions
open has caused extra load on the database and been our largest
sources of django.db.utils:OperationError exceptions.
This has been particularly noticeable as we start deploying the
new Courseware MFE, which uses the BlocksInCourseView more
frequently.
This switches the Dates Tab to be an enrolled tab allowing only
enrolled learners to view. Additionally, it will now redirect
logged out learners to the login page if they hit the Dates Tab directly.
- use new dates banner template on course outline page
- remove old banner from main.html
- let dates tab use new dates banner template
- remove dates banner completely from the courseware problem view
on the web app
- use new banner on the courseware problem view on the mobile app
- update banner util to use get_course_blocks

The courseware_api view will use check_course_access - which now returns AccessResponse objects, and all other uses of check_course_access will now use check_course_access_with_redirect, which is a drop-in replacement for the original check_course_access implementation.
We also added a few new helpers to access_utils:
- check_public_access is a replacement for allow_public_access, which now returns AccessResponse objects
- check_enrollment checks if the learner is enrolled, and uses check_public_access to account for COURSE_ENABLE_UNENROLLED_ACCESS_FLAG
- check_survey checks whether there is a required survey that the learner must complete prior to accessing the course.
There are two new kinds of AccessError subclasses:
- SurveyRequiredAccessError
- EnrollmentRequiredAccessError
- remove code for displaying banner in mobile dates fragment
- replace button with link to web app in reset dates banner on
the mobile problem template
- adjust spacing of reset dates button in banner when button wraps
on smaller screen
