This PR changes the preview URL redirect from Studio. Before when a user clicked on the course preview button to check unpublished changes, the preview in the New Experience would show the most recently published version of the course. The unpublished changes that the user was hoping to view are no present. At the moment users have been publishing the content to check it then having to republish the old version if they did not like the changes. As a short-term fix, this PR redirects to the Legacy experience where the preview option previously worked. Now the user can see the unpublished changes. A long-term fix is still being explored. This change will impact the Course Author.
- Remove the REDIRECT_TO_COURSEWARE_MICROFRONTEND waffle flag.
- Add a new COURSEWARE_USE_LEGACY_FRONTEND waffle flag that directs
all learners to the legacy courseware experience.
- Skip two failing a11y tests which fail due to the new default of
the courseware MFE.

This patch will update the text on the course dashboard when a learner
successfully earns a certificate and that certificate is available. It
also adds to the Outline API for the Outline in the Learning MFE so that
the same changes can be made there.
[MICROBA-678]
Added cert availability date to the API used to get certificate status
by the learning MFE to support updated messaging.
Updated the cert availability messaging in the Coruse Dashboard,
including a text color change.
This change causes the activation link that’s emailed to a newly-registered user
to utilize a next query parameter. The impetus for this change is an edX Enterprise use-case:
we'd like newly registered Enterprise Customer admins and learners
to be directed to the Enterprise Learner Portal (or Admin Portal) upon account activation.
This is likely a broad enough use case to be valuable in other endeavors.
The course name can contain apostrophes and other special characters. The email template right now escapes every words. This is not desired because it can render apostrophes like #39;. Update the email templates so only second half of the email template is escaped
Someone at edx was able to quickly send a few texts to himself using the tool.
Each text came from a different number and there was no message about the ability to unsubscribe or stop.
This could potentially be used to spam users as well as potentially result in charges to edX for high volume.

Centralize the logic for choosing between
MFE and Legacy-frontend courseware within
three new functions:
* courseware_mfe_is_active
* courseware_mfe_is_visible
* courseware_legacy_is_visible
This allows us to create another new function:
* get_courseware_url
which can be called anywhere in LMS/Studio
to get the canonical URL to courseware
content (whether it be MFE or Legacy).
In future commits we we begin using
get_courseware_url throughout the platform.

- Today, we check if a learner is actively enrolled in a course-run before we add or remove them from the Instructor Dashboard allow list. We ran into an issue where we couldn't remove an entry from the list because the learner is no longer actively enrolled in the course-run. Update instructor dashboard logic to only check enrollment status when _adding_ a learner to the allow list.
When this flag is enabled, users will be 50/50 bucketed into an
experiment where users get course highlights and nudges from an
external service (like sailthru or braze) rather than from
edx-platform via ACE.

This commit removes several waffle toggles that have been enabled
on edx.org for years. It's time to remove the rollout gating for
these features and enable them by default.
This doesn't directly change any behavior. But it does create new
database objects by default now and allows for enabling other
schedule based features more easily.
Specifically, the following toggles were affected.
schedules.create_schedules_for_course
- Waffle flag removed as always-enabled
- We now always create a schedule when an enrollment is created
schedules.send_updates_for_course
- Waffle flag removed as always-enabled
- Course update emails are sent as long as the ScheduleConfig
allows it.
- This is not a change in default behavior, because ScheduleConfig
is off by default.
dynamic_pacing.studio_course_update
- Waffle switch removed as always-enabled
- Course teams can now always edit course updates directly in Studio
ScheduleConfig.create_schedules
ScheduleConfig.hold_back_ratio
- Model fields for rolling out the schedules feature
- Schedules are now always created
- This commit only removes references to these fields, they still
exist in the database. A future commit will remove them entirely
This commit also adds a new has_highlights field to CourseOverview.
This is used to cache whether a course has highlights, used to
decide which course update email behavior they get. Previously every
enrollment had to dig into the modulestore to determine that.
This feature uses the first_day_of_streak, last_day_of_streak and last_streak_celebration fields to determine whether the user should see a celebration.
