XBlocks can and should use the "publish" method provided by the runtime to emit analytical events. In theory we could now start replacing calls to track_function with calls to publish, however, that migration is not handled by this change.
Fixes: AN-789
This information will likely be used frequently for analytics purposes, so we would like to denormalize here to avoid having to join with the modulestore later.
Fixes: AN-594
To get all dates localized, we need all runtimes to have the i18n
service, and since runtimes are made by the modulestores, we need to
pass it to them.
Soon (fingers crossed), modulestores won't be involved in making
runtimes, and many of these changes will go away.
This requires fixing the javascript api implementation, and adding
an implementation of get_block to the ModuleSystem api.
However, the implementation is incomplete, due to mismatches between
the expectations of XModule and XBlock.
Also adds tests using the Acid block to make sure that the javascript
and python apis for children are working correctly.
Make XBlock client-side runtimes proper classes, so that handlerUrl can
be defined in a per-runtime way, and we can have multiple runtimes on a
single page.

Final changes to comments and error messages.
Adds a feature to the edX platform which allows instructors to set
individual due dates for students on particular coursework. This code is
meant primarily for on-campus use--it is not intended that this feature
would be used for MOOCs. It adds a new tab, "Extensions", to the beta
instructor dashboard which allows changing due dates per student. This
feature is enabled by setting FEATURES['INDIVIDUAL_DUE_DATES'] = True.
The django.utils.translation module has the right interface to serve as a
gettext.Translations object, so we use it for the runtime i18n service.

Updates to depend on the latest version of XBlock, which includes
support for service-to-service (thirdparty) handler urls, which aren't
authenticated with a user (unlike handler requests coming from the
xblock client-side javascript).

Previously, whenever a XModule was created from a XDescriptor, we
created another level of nesting of FieldData objects. This change
prevents that nesting.
[TKTS-393]
By transparently proxying between the XModuleDescriptor and the XModule,
and between their runtimes, we can make them act as a single class, so
that we can swap in an actual XBlock instead.
We had a bug where mixins weren't being applied before `load_from_xml`
was called. This meant that not all of the fields were being loaded
correctly. To fix it, we used the mixoligist from the runtime to apply
the mixins earlier in the process. However, that caused the mixins to be
applied twice.
The included fixes to xblock resolved the multiply-applied mixins, and
the fixes to the parsing code make it simpler to understand, and add
some unit tests of the parsing to boot.
