In DE-1822, we believed we needed to switch to start_date and end_date.
It was determined this was not the case, so this updates the comment
to ensure future users use the correct fields (start and end) and
updates any pieces of code that may have used start_date or end_date.
This djangoapp was designed for talking to sailthru, in a fairly
edx.org-specific way. Nowadays, edx.org doesn't need this code and
if other installations do, it's better off as a more distinct
plugin anyway, rather than direct support in the platform.
I've moved the one signal that was still useful (calling
segment.identify() whenever user fields change) into user_authn.
And I've left the EmailMarketingConfiguration model alone for now,
but will remove that shortly. Nothing uses it as of this commit.

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

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.
