The existing pattern of using `override_settings(MODULESTORE=...)` prevented
us from having more than one layer of subclassing in modulestore tests.
In a structure like:
@override_settings(MODULESTORE=store_a)
class BaseTestCase(ModuleStoreTestCase):
def setUp(self):
# use store
@override_settings(MODULESTORE=store_b)
class ChildTestCase(BaseTestCase):
def setUp(self):
# use store
In this case, the store actions performed in `BaseTestCase` on behalf of
`ChildTestCase` would still use `store_a`, even though the `ChildTestCase`
had specified to use `store_b`. This is because the `override_settings`
decorator would be the innermost wrapper around the `BaseTestCase.setUp` method,
no matter what `ChildTestCase` does.
To remedy this, we move the call to `override_settings` into the
`ModuleStoreTestCase.setUp` method, and use a cleanup to remove the override.
Subclasses can just defined the `MODULESTORE` class attribute to specify which
modulestore to use _for the entire `setUp` chain_.

update changelog
This commit adds the non-courseware lms/djangoapps and lms/lib.
These keys are now objects with a limited interface, and the particular
internal representation is managed by the data storage layer (the
modulestore).
For the LMS, there should be no outward-facing changes to the system.
The keys are, for now, a change to internal representation only. For
Studio, the new serialized form of the keys is used in urls, to allow
for further migration in the future.

[LMS-2370]
When creating an instructor task total_num_items may change between the
time it and the number of subtasks is calculated and the time the
subtasks are actually queued (all of this cannot happen in one transaction).
In such a case the extra items are distributed among the subtasks of the
last query.
LMS-2090
Instead, we use XModule field default values when creating an empty
XModule. Driven by this use case, we also allow for XModules to be
created in memory without being persisted to the database at all. This
necessitates a change to the Modulestore api, replacing clone_item with
create_draft and save_xmodule.
