This commit updates common/lib/xmodule.
These keys are now objects with a limited interface, and the particular
internal representation is managed by the data storage layer (the
modulestore).
For the LMS, there should be no outward-facing changes to the system.
The keys are, for now, a change to internal representation only. For
Studio, the new serialized form of the keys is used in urls, to allow
for further migration in the future.

[LMS-2370]
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.
We've had errors in export related to non-ascii chars being passed to format. Proactively making these usages of format robut to non-ascii chars.
Part of STUD-868
Under normal operation, XModules are reloaded on each request from a
student. CombinedOpenEnded modules have code that runs at initialization
that validates the students state. These changes makes that code run
during several long-form unit tests (testing CombinedOpenEnded across
multiple 'requests').
These tests are marked as expectedFailure because they now exhibit the
same failures as observed in [LMS-1493] (namely, the students state gets
reset, because CombinedOpenEnded interprets system.ajax_url raising an
error as meaning that the problem definition and the student answers are
in conflict)
