Logged out learners shouldn't be lead to believe they'll be able to
enroll themselves into such courses, which we're worried they may've

This commit updates the Info messages on the course page to display
more informative messages to the user. Specifically, messages for Public
and Invitation-only courses.
This PR is based on #19284 and is part of the
series of work related to the proposal #18134.
This PR avoids the assignment of
anonymous/unenrolled users to any cohort when
course is public. Anonymous or unenrolled users
will only see content that does not have a
content group assigned.
The "View Course" link to the course outline
is shown on the course about page for a course
marked public/public outline.
It also makes course handouts available for
public courses (not for public_outline).
This PR also hides the different warnings and
messages asking the user to sign-in and enroll
in the course, when the course is marked public.
It modifies the default public_view text to
include the component display_name when
unenrolled access is not available.
Moves banner into the content instead of at the top. Adds a course
expiration fragment to the course home page, the content, the progress
page, and the discussion page.
The course_visiblity field can have one of three values:
1. private (default): This keeps the standard access rules.
2. public_outline: Allows unenrolled and anonymous users access to the outline.
3. public: Allows unenrolled and anonymous users access to both outline and
course content.
When an unenrolled user accesses course content, instead of student_view(),
public_view() is used. A default implementation is provided for XBlocks
which do not implement this view. The public_view() must not have any
functionality which assumes the presence of a valid User and should show
a readonly only interface for the XBlock content.
