in the problemgradereport currently we must currently hold the entire file in memory before writing it all at once. to avoid out of memory celery issues to resolve a blocking bug for some MIT courses, add a temp waffle flag `instructor_task.use_on_disk_grade_reporting` which when activated uses this new report to (hopefully) allow the report to complete. Additional testing and consideration is required for this approach.
BREAKING: get rid of the LegacyWaffle-based CourseWaffleFlag.
Both CourseWaffleFlag and FutureCourseWaffleFlag now use the modern
WaffleFlag as parent class. FutureCourseWaffleFlag left to support ORA
transition to modern waffle.
Switch to the ORA version which supporting new Waffles.
This is a first stage for removing the LegacyWaffle* classes.
LegacyWaffleFlag usage replaced with WaffleFlag;
LegacyWaffleSwitche usage replaced with WaffleSwitch;
New CourseWaffleFlag added to the temporary module __future__ as FutureCourseWaffleFlag;
Updated all the imports to use CourseWaffleFlag from the __future__ module;
BREAKING CHANGE: A number of toggle related constants (e.g. ENABLE_ACCESSIBILITY_POLICY_PAGE)
changed types. They were strings, and are now toggle instances (e.g. WaffleSwitch). Although the entire
refactor should be self-contained in edx-platform, if any plugins or dependencies were directly
using these constants, they will break. If this is the case, try to find a better publicized way of
exposing those toggles.
A variety of updates were made to improve the toggle documentation:
* Added comments to help ensure that the waffle(), waffle_switches(),
waffle_flags() anti-pattern won't be contagious (copied).
* Some minor toggle_description updates.
* Removed empty toggle_target_removal_date annotations for
non-temporary toggles.
* Removed empty optional toggle_warnings annotations.
* Removed empty optional toggle_tickets annotations.
* Removed deprecated toggle_category, toggle_status,
and toggle_expiration_date annotations.
* Fixed some indents, use cases, and implementations.

By explicitly importing the legacy namespace classes, we make it clear
that we are using soon-to-be-deprecated classes. We will then be able to
start removing the legacy classes, one module at a time.
Instead of going up the stacktrace to find the module names of waffle
flags and switches, we manually pass the module __name__ whenever the
flag is created. This is similar to `logging.getLogger(__name__)`
standard behaviour.
As the waffle classes are used outside of edx-platform, we make the new
module_name argument an optional keyword argument. This will change once
we pull waffle_utils outside of edx-platform.
Note that the module name is normally only required to view the list of
existing waffle flags and switches. The module name should not be
necessary to verify if a flag is enabled. Thus, maybe it would make
sense to create a `add` class methor similar to:
class WaffleFlag:
@classmethod
def add(cls, namespace, flag, module):
instance = cls(namespace, flag)
cls._class_instances.add((instance, module))
