Serve branded footer JSON/HTML/CSS/JS from an API endpoint
in the branding app. Refactor OpenEdX and EdX.org footer templates
to use the Python version of the API, ensuring that the API
values are consistent with the footer included in main.html.
Detailed changes:
* Added footer API end-point to the branding app.
* Footer API allows the language to be set with querystring parameters.
* Footer API allows showing/hiding of the OpenEdX logo using querystring parameters.
* Deprecate ENABLE_FOOTER_V3 in favor of the branding API configuration flag.
* Move no referrer script into main.html from the edx footer template.
* Rename rwd_header_footer.js to rwd_header.js
* Cache API responses.

individual students, and a reimplementation of the individual due date
feature.
This work introduces an architecture, used with the 'authored_data'
portion of LmsFieldData, which allows arbitrary field overrides to be
made for fields that are part of the course content or settings (Mongo
data). The basic architecture is extensible by means of writing and
configuring arbitrary field override providers.
One concrete implementation of a field override provider is provided
which allows for overrides to be for individual students. This provider
is then used as a basis for reimplementing the individual due date
extensions feature as a proof of concept for the design.
One can imagine writing override providers that provide overrides based
on a student's membership in a cohort or other similar idea. This work
is being done, in fact, to pave the way for the Personal Online Courses
feature being developed by MIT, which will use an override provider very
much long those lines.
