The node_path attribute & constructor argument of the ModuleSystem is
deprecated without any replacement service or fallback as there doesn't
seem to be any core blocks using it.
It also removes the references to node_path from the LMS settings, the
LoncapaModuleSystem and the XBlock runtime shim.

The ACE_* settings from lms/envs/common.py are all ignored because they are
overloaded by the plugin settings. We were recently bitten by this, as we
discovered that the ACE_ROUTING_KEY was incorrectly set to 'edx.core.low'.
Here, we fix this default value and remove ACE_* settings from
lms/envs/common.py to avoid confusion.

Implements a feature flag DISABLE_UNENROLLMENT that is used to disable students un-enrollment for all courses. The Unenrollment option should be disabled when this feature is set to True.

* refactor: enterprise dependencies for EdxRestAPIClient replacement
This is a part of https://github.com/openedx/public-engineering/issues/42
- add settings for enterprise-backend-service DOT application
- update utils used by enterprise to get rid of EdxRestAPIClient
- original utils stays in the code (to keep edx-platform api
clients working) till the
https://github.com/openedx/public-engineering/issues/39 deprecation
work will be done
* fix: fix typo in the docstring
Tests which @requires_blockstore (i.e. the Blockstore service) have
been made to run as a unit test using the installed Blockstore app, and
will be run by the platform CI.
The Blockstore service tests can still be run manually by setting
EDXAPP_RUN_BLOCKSTORE_TESTS=1
Related fixes:
* adds blockstore bundle storage settings
* let the studio devstack and test servers serve static files from
the /media URL This allows the blockstore/content libraries API to
serve blockstore assets in dev.
* Wrap ContentLibrary creation in an atomic transaction, so that if it
fails, the related bundle can be deleted directly from the database
during the exception handler. (Previously, we called a REST API which
deleted it as part of a separate service.)
* adds blockstore as a requirement and an installed app, with
configurable bundle storage settings.
* adds waffle switch and setting to allow use of blockstore's python API
instead of REST API in live testservers and in production.
* adds database router which, when a `blockstore` DATABASE connection is
configured, allows the platform to use the blockstore service's
database instead of the default edxapp database.
* replaces blockstore_api exceptions and models with blockstore.app.api classes
* minor fixes to the blockstore_api to make the Blockstore REST API
return data packaged the same as the Blockstore Python API.
Previously, our rate-limiting code trusted the entire `X-Forwarded-For`
header, allowing a malicious client to spoof that header and evade
rate-limiting. This commit introduces a new module and setting
allowing us to make a more conservative choice of IPs.
- Create new `openedx.core.djangoapps.util.ip` module for producing
the IP "external chain" for requests based on the XFF header and the
REMOTE_ADDR.
- Include a function that gives the safest choice of IPs.
- Add new setting `CLOSEST_CLIENT_IP_FROM_HEADERS` for configuring how
the external chain is derived (i.e. setting the trust
boundary). Currently has a default, but we may want to make it
mandatory in the future.
- Change `django-ratelimit` code to use the proximate IP in the external
chain -- the one just outside the trust boundary.
Also:
- Change `XForwardedForMiddleware` to use more conservative choice for
its `REMOTE_ADDR` override
- Other adjustments to `XForwardedForMiddleware` as needed in order to
initialize new module and support code that needs the real
`REMOTE_ADDR` value
- Metrics for observability into the change (and XFF composition)
- Feature switch to restore legacy mode if needed
This also gives us a path forward to removing use of the django-ipware
package, which is no longer maintained and has a handful of bugs that make it
difficult to use safely.

This was the "outline tab" view of the course. Preceded by the
course info view, succeeded by the MFE outline tab.
In addition to the course home view itself, this drops related
features:
- Legacy version of Course Goals (MFE has a newer implementation)
- Course home in-course search (MFE has no search)
The old course info view and course about views survive for now.
This also drops a few now-unused feature toggles:
- course_experience.latest_update
- course_experience.show_upgrade_msg_on_course_home
- course_experience.upgrade_deadline_message
- course_home.course_home_use_legacy_frontend
With this change, just the progress and courseware tabs are still
supported in legacy form, if you opt-in with waffle flags. The
outline and dates tabs are offered only by the MFE.

Also remove some old docs suggestions that I don't think are relevant
anymore.

This code was originally located at:
./openedx/core/djangoapps/coursegraph
However, code makes more sense within the ./cms tree, because:
* it is responsible for publishing course content to an
external system, with is within the responsibilities of CMS, and
* is uses modulestore, which is discouraged for use in LMS
(see 0011-limit-modulestore-use-in-lms.rst).
So, we move the code to:
./cms/djangoapps/coursegraph
and uninstall coursegraph from LMS.
We do not expect this refactor to have any breaking downstream effects.
Most settings in the production.py files fall back to their values in
common.py if they aren't set in the yaml config files but some
historically didn't. Update them so that they are more in-line with the
rest of the settings in this file.
edx/edx-platform#24365 has changed the completion mode of these blocks.
Before Koa, it was sufficient to view the block to get a completion checkmark.
Since Koa, all children of the block must be completed.
This adds a toggle to change the completion behavior back to the previous one
so that the user experience can be consistent if needed.
Creates a link to the new communication mfe's bulk email tool in the
instructor dashboard version. Staff can now use either experience. In
the future, we plan on turning off the old experience, like analytics.
Reason codes will be used by the frontend to list and validate the reasons for specifying moderation actions.

Contains a number of cookie monitoring changes.
Enhancements:
- Add sampling capability for cookie logging on headers
smaller than the threshold. For details, see
COOKIE_SAMPLING_REQUEST_COUNT.
- Add cookie header size to log message.
- Sort logged cookies starting with largest cookie.
- Move logging from Middleware request processing
to response processing to ensure the user id is
available for logging for authenticated calls.
- Added cookies.header.size.computed to check
if there are any large hidden duplicate cookies.
Can be compared against the cookies.header.size
custom attribute.
- Add delimiters into logs to make it simpler to parse
when the logging tools accidentally exports multiple
log lines together.
Removed:
- Legacy cookie capture code. This code was dangerous to
to enable and provided more limited insight than the
newer logging, so this was removed to simplify the code.
Other refactors:
- Switched Middleware to use new Django format, rather
than the Mixin.
- Moved tests to its own test class. Note: this
middleware is likely to move to a separate
library.
