This makes a couple of changes to the xblock handler in the CMS. These changes
add a handful of utility functions and modify the existing ones to make reuse
of existing blocks easier. With these changes, it is possible to copy an
entire section from one course to another, and then later refresh that section,
and all of its children, without destroying the blocks next to it.
The existing _duplicate_block function was modified to have a shallow keyword
to avoid copying children, and the update_from_source function was added to
make it easy to copy attributes over from one block to another. These functions
can be used alongside copy_from_template in the modulestore to copy over blocks
and their children without requiring them to be within any particular container
(other than a library or course root)-- thus allowing library-like inclusion
without the library content block. This is especially useful for cases like
copying sections rather than unit content.
We get about one email per month from people looking for access to edX
APIs. Those emails come to the now almost-defunct oscm@edx.org email
address. I think that's because of these swagger references.
I suppose someone could find this email address on an Open edX
installation, and people would write to it, but I find in practice this
doesn't happen.

An exam due date can be inferred from the end date of the course if the exam does not have a due date. In the legacy proctoring system (the edx-proctoring plugin), this inference is made in the proctoring code by calling the edx-when API. This is possible because edx-proctoring is a plugin that's installed into the edx-platform, into which edx-when is also installed.
In the new exams service, we do not want to call to the LMS to get due date information from edx-when. This poses a number of problems, not all of which are solved by this commit. This commit allows the exams service to infer a due date for an exam if that exam does not have a due date at the subsection level.
Note that this is a departure from edx-proctoring. This also opts out exams powered by the new edx-exams service from personalized learner schedules (PLS)/relative dates, because we no longer consider the pacing type of the course.
This basically changes how the xmodule static files are
generated and consumed in order to separate the Xblock
styles from general style files. Includes:
* build: decople XModule style assets by using a custom webpack loader
* build: move scss imports to its specific file
* build: fix: add system dirs to theme lookup paths. (fixes attempt 1)
* build: fix: use bootstrap variables instead of lms variables (fixes attempt 2)
This is an amendment to #32188,
which itself was an amendment to #32018.

* feat: added enrollment API for notification config
* feat: added apps.py in notifications
* feat: added waffle flag for notification app
* feat: added proper docs for the API

After changes from #31472, the user service of a "leaf" XBlock gets overridden
with the one created for its parent (SequenceBlock). Therefore, the
`requires_per_student_anonymous_id` is ignored in these XBlocks. The
subsequent renders of an XBlock (e.g., when requesting the solution) use
the student-specific IDs.
This removes choosing the proper ID (course-specific or student-specific) from
the runtime initialization. Instead, both IDs are passed to the user service.
There are only two XBlocks that relied on the
`requires_per_student_anonymous_id` - `ProblemBlock` and `HtmlBlock`. They
now request the "deprecated" (student-specific) user ID directly from the user
service.
