Adds a feature to the edX platform which allows instructors to set
individual due dates for students on particular coursework. This code is
meant primarily for on-campus use--it is not intended that this feature
would be used for MOOCs. It adds a new tab, "Extensions", to the beta
instructor dashboard which allows changing due dates per student. This
feature is enabled by setting FEATURES['INDIVIDUAL_DUE_DATES'] = True.
* adds in Sass placeholder to mirror older/inherited button styling used in LMS
* uses light theming Sass variables for button styling
* adds specific selector for certificate download button
A newer version was added to common/, so that is used instead. It is
also added to the set of JS files used in unit tests to allow forums
code in common/ to be tested.
* provides new .scss file for developers to add temporary/in-progress Sass for further refactor/polish
* cleans up note/import order in all application scss files
This button has been broken for at least a year, so the code has
suffered from bit rot and should be reimplmemented if the feature is
necessary in the short term (which is unlikely since it has been broken
for so long).
All the dialogs in the wiki are now accessible to screen readers.
Also, the "Switch to selected version" button did the odd thing of
reloading the page with the new version selected, but inside a dialog.
That is now fixed.
The merge dialog has a warning that looks kind of funky still, but you
can read it, unlike the previous code.

Restrict grade report generation to 'is_superuser' users (can be overridden with
feature flag ALLOW_COURSE_STAFF_GRADE_DOWNLOADS); all staff users can download
generated files.
LMS-58
AJAX requests on forums pages occasionally fail (usually when a request
to the comments service times out), but the user is not made aware of
the failure. This manifests as either the system not appearing to store
state (e.g. if an attempt to flag a post fails) or something taking
forever to load. Now, a modal will pop up to alert the user that a
request has failed and instruct them to reload the page.
In the longer term, we should fix each user gesture that results in an
AJAX call to gracefully handle a failure by resetting the state of the
world appropriately and aleritng the user.
