We use the `notify_credentials` management command to keep certificate-
related data in the LMS and Credentials service in sync. We can run it
with specific arguments (user_ids, course_keys, etc.) when we notice a
data discrepancy; and it is run regularly by a Jenkins job with the
`--auto` flag every ~4 hours to keep things up-to-date.
Because we probably never want to notify credentials of of ALL the
GeneratedCertificates, the celery task must be given some arguments
to filter down to the relevant certificates. Running the management
command with the `--auto` flag (as the Jenkins job does) adds
`start_date` and `end_date` arguments of 4 hours ago and now,
respectively.
The handle_notify_credentials celery task then takes those arguments and
looks for any GeneratedCertificates that have been modified within the
given time range by checking the GeneratedCertificate modified_date.
It will send the current data for those certificates to credentials.
However, we also want to notify credentials about certificates that have
an associated CertificateDateOverride that has changed within that time
range: added, updated, or deleted. But changes to a
CertificateDateOverride won’t affect the GeneratedCertificate’s modified
date, and therefore wouldn’t be included in the list of certs cent to
credentials.
This commit adds a check for changed CertificateDateOverrides and
includes their associated GeneratedCertificates in the list of certs. We
use the CertificateDateOverride’s history model for this check so that
we can include certificates whose override was deleted.

Before this change, the notify_credentials management command ran for
about 10-15 minutes and occasionally overlapped with an edxapp
deployment which would cause the machine the command was running
on to die. The command ran through a bunch of certs and grades, and then
spun off celery tasks to send the relevant data to credentials.
Now, most of the logic of the notify_credentials management command has
been moved into a new celery task, so that combing through longs lists
of certs and grades is done asynchronously. This task then spins off the
original data-sending tasks as before.
Note that this requires a change in alerting: where the jenkins job
would previously notify us about failures, we need to know when this
new celery task fails for any reason. We’ve made this a LoggedTask
so that failures will be logged to Splunk and alerting can be built off
of the error messages.
This commit also moves the relevant tests.

The learner records feature had to be enabled/disabled via site-specific
configuration models, which is inconvenient for platforms that want to
disable this feature globally. Here, we introduce a
ENABLE_LEARNER_RECORDS feature toggle in the lms/cms settings that makes
it possible to disable this feature on all sites. Because this feature
toggle is set to True by default, this will not modify the behaviour of
existing platforms.

This stage does the following:
- Includes a data migration to copy the values from old to new field.
- Changes business logic to switch to using new field.
- Deletes all code references of the old field.
This reverts commit 84de6bc6de
which reverts commit cebeab4348
which implements the first stage of the `values` column rename in
SiteConfiguration. However, I included a small change:
This time, we set a default value on the new `site_values` column so
that the ORM will happily deserialize the JSONField without throwing a
JSONDecodeError.
Allow our utility function to filter out course certs when asking
Credentials for a list of certificates. This way once we start
handing back course certs, the LMS won't be surprised by
assumptions about what the credentials service will give back.
The new design for the program detail page introduced a sidebar which includes a program-specific listing of credentials. This is an improvement over the old list of credentials found on the program list page and is meant to replace it. The new detail page is stable, so the credential listing on the program list page can be removed.

This includes a representation of the user's progress towards completing each course in the program and a list of any relevant course and/or program certificates the user has earned.
ECOM-7386
This commit contains back end changes necessary to load programs from the catalog in all contexts. The existing program munging utility is applied as late as possible to avoid conflating this work with changes to the front end; those will be made separately.
ECOM-4422
When program detail pages are enabled, cards on the listing page will link to their respective detail pages. Includes extensive cleanup of program listing tests. ECOM-4227.
By default, disable all caching in tests, to preserve test independence.
In order to enable caching, inherit from CacheSetupMixin, and specify
which cache configuration is needed.
