Moved data.py out into the parent's dirctory i.e learning_sequences directory to avoid circular import issue which is occuring when we try to import data.py from models.py.
A new CourseContext model is created, which is responsible for housing course specific fields e.g course_visibility.
Introduces the learning_sequences app, intended to provide metadata for
sequences and course outlines. The short term goal is to provide faster
source of this information for the new Courseware microfrontend
(frontend-app-learning). The medium term goal is to provide an in-proc
API that is useful to other parts of the platform that need fast access
to course outline information customized for a user. The long term
goals are outlined in the README.rst.
This first iteration of the API only lays out the basic structure for
how we'd arrange the pieces, with enough of an implementation to feel
"real" (simple schedules, staff_only content hiding). It's not ready to
be turned on, and is not currently plugged into the publish-flow. The
only way to get data into this new API is via the update_course_outline
management command. The REST endpoint is also currently limited to
global staff only, though it's possible to get the outline for a student
by using the ?username= query parameter.

This reverts commit cdb0619846,
which itself reverted 3ca006214e.
The original commit (3ca006) was reverted because it was suspected
that it was causing unexpectedly-increased memcached usage and
500s in the Gradebook API. It is not clear whether that is actually
the case. We are optimistically reinstating 3ca006 and will monitor
production to see if there is an adverse effect.

The functions `CourseOverview.get_from_id_if_exists`
and `CourseOverview.get_from_ids if exists` are bug-
prone, in that they do not go to the modulestore
when a CourseOverview is out-of-date or uncached.
The docstrings spell this out, but callers seem
not to understand the implications.
So, in this commit, we:
* Remove both functions
* Add `CourseOverview.get_from_ids` for almost-as-fast
yet safer bulk-fetching of overviews
* Update call sites to use `course_exists` or `get_from_ids`
in place of the old functions.
* Add tests for @verify_course_exists.
This PR should specifically fix an issue where
the program_enrollments API was breaking when the CourseOverview
version was bumped.

We use pickling in conjunction with caches in these cases so we should
be able to fallback to the uncached behavior if the pickled data is
corrupt in some way.
eg. it's a python 2 pickle we don't know how to read.
