refactor: make xmodule & openedx independent of code in cms
The xmodule and openedx packages both contain code that is common
between LMS and CMS. The cms package is, of course,
contains CMS-specific code.
So, one prerequisite to extracting CMS into an independent service
will be making sure that lms, common, openedx, and the projects in
common/lib (xmodule, capa, etc.) are not coupled to any CMS-specific
features. This PR moves us towards that reality by making sure
that those packages are independent from cms from a Python-import
perspective, at least.
Code in ./common/lib/xmodule/xmodule should
be imported as `from xmodule`, since `xmodule`
is a locally-installed package.
This is weird, but as long as it is the case,
we should be consistent.
(In BOM-2584, I propose moving the files to
./xmodule, which would quell this confusion.)
We had been pre-escaping display names like 'Math & Science' as
'Math & Science" in the REST API itself - which meant that
consumers like MFEs that do their own escaping displayed the wrong
thing.
It's better for the API to just leave the string as-is. As far as
I know, this only affects the gradebook and progress pages, both
of which do their own escaping of the result from the API already.

Youtube videos that are age-restricted must be viewed on youtube
itself rather than in the embedded player. So we can't notice when
the video is watched. Rather than leave it incompletable, just mark
the video complete immediately if it's restricted.

The edx-sandbox (secure/codejailed execution context
for edx-platform) still runs in Python 3.5, so certain
modules in common/lib cannot be py-upgraded to use
Python 3.8 syntax.
Specifically, this commit added an f-string to
common/lib/sandbox-packages/verifiers/draganddrop.py,
which broke scoring of deprecated drag-and-drop problems
in codejail.

This reverts commit 8c06b68bbe
NOTE: This will require a forced backfill of course outlines to update
the course content data in learning_sequences:
python manage.py cms backfill_course_outlines --force
Without this backfill, the learning_sequences API will continue to serve
stale content data that has no user partition group data. It won't cause
errors, but it won't do the exclusions properly.
Commit summary:
* Created EnrollmentTrackPartitionGroupsOutlineProcessor to process the
enrollment_track User Partition Group, allowing Sequences and Sections
to be removed based on their group_access settings.
* Added user_partition_groups attribute to CourseLearningSequenceData
and CourseSectionData in learning_sequences/data.py, along with
backing model data.
* get_outline_from_modulestore now extracts group_access settings from
Sections and Sequences. It also bubbles up group_access settings from
Units, meaning that if a Sequence with no group_access setting has
Units that are all set to show only to the Verified enrollment track,
then the Sequence will only show to the Verified enrollment track.
This commit adds model-level support for all user partition groups by
capturing all the content group associations (group_access), but it only
implements the code checks for the enrollment track partition. It's not
clear that we want to generalize, since there's only one other partition
type (A/B testing) that is applicable at the outline level.
It's important to note that there is no way to set the group_access for
a Section or Sequence in Studio today. It's only possible by direct
editing of the OLX for import. That being said, the block structures
framework supports applying course groups at this level, and this commit
moves learning_sequences closer to feature parity.
The bubbling up from Units to the parent Sequence was done to mitigate
confusion when a Sequence is entirely composed of Units that are not
visible to the user because of content group restrictions. It's not
clear whether this is something we want to do in the long term, since it
would simplify the code to always specify group_access at the Sequence
level. This first pass is done partially to collect better data about
places in our courses where this kind of usage is already happening.
Most of the EnrollmentTrackPartitionGroupsOutlineProcessor code and its
tests were written by @schenedx.
Because xblock handlers normally get a block tree that already has
inaccessible blocks stripped, they don't see FBE gated blocks at
all. So the get_completion handler would return True for FBE units
incorrectly. Leading to a visual bug as an audit user went through
their units in the courseware.
In order to let the handler know about the full tree, I've added a
new attribute you can set on your xblock handlers:
my_handler.will_recheck_access = True
This will tell the top-level handler code get the full tree for you.
As part of this, I've also changed the sequence xblock handler's
into proper xblock handlers (not old-style xmodule handlers).
This changes their URLs slightly. I've kept the old URLs for now
as well, but they'll be removed after Maple.

Previously, ProblemBlock's implementation was split between
CapaMixin/CapaFields (in capa_base.py) and ProblemBlock
(in capa_module.py), the former being the base classes of the
latter. The split existed for a historical reason:
as a former XModule, ProblemBlock was once split
between CapaDescriptor (author-facing) and CapaModule
(learner-facing). Since ProblemBlock has been converted
to being a pure XBlock, the division between the base
classes and the block class are no longer necessary
nor semantically helpful.
docs: Flesh out ProblemBlock's docstring a bit.
We don't need to execute instuctor code for the problem response
report because we're grabbing existing student state and scores.
Running codejail is expensive, slow, and risks report failures if
there is CPU intensive instructor code that is run at times when
the servers are already heavily loaded (and things start timing
out). This came up in TNL-8183 (and many others).
This:
1. Introduces a new override using the `pluggable_override` decorator.
It is now possible to specify a custom way of getting XBlock's icon
by defining `GET_UNIT_ICON_IMPL` in settings.
2. Introduces a way to add custom `XBLOCK_MIXINS` by defining
`XBLOCK_EXTRA_MIXINS` in settings. This allows, e.g. to add
new fields to XBlocks.
This fixes TNL-7973 [1].

Video SJSON transcripts are supposed to be UTF-8 encoded, but SJSON
is an ad hoc thing we made up to make it easier to build the
transcripts viewer in the VideoBlock, and it's not well specified.
Prior to this commit, if you had an SJSON file with Latin-1 encoded
text outside the standard ASCII range (e.g. û), then we'd error out
while trying to export it.
This was blocking an effort to export some Old Mongo courses (TNL-8007).
