In the effort to simplify settings in edx-platform, as discussed in ADR 22 -
Settings Simplification, this PR brings some of the production defaults defined
in `lms/envs/production.py` and `cms/envs/production.py` up to
`openedx/envs/common.py` or `lms/envs/common.py` and `cms/envs/common.py` as
appropriate.
Bringing these defaults up from the `production.py` settings modules caused
changes in the rendered settings of the `test.py` modules, and so I have
settings to the `test.py` modules to bring the rendered settings back in line
with what is has been. I have not deeply looked at which settings are needed
for tests to pass or not, but just the differences between the rendered
settings between `master` and this branch.

Fixes https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/issues/36892.
This PR removes the usage of the custom `mongodb_proxy` package from
edx-platform, replacing it with MongoDB's built-in retry functionality via
`retryReads=True`.
Changes:
* Removed all references to `mongodb_proxy.MongoProxy` from connection logic.
* Updated `connect_to_mongodb()` to always use `retryReads=True`.
* Uninstalled `openedx-mongodbproxy` from edx-platform requirements.
Fixes: https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/issues/35210

This brings an important security improvement -- codejail won't default to
running in unsafe mode, which can happen if certain configuration errors
are present.
Properly configured installations shouldn't be affected. We just need to
adjust some unit tests to opt into unsafe mode.
Changes:
- Update `edx-codejail` dependency to [version 4.0.0](https://github.com/openedx/codejail/blob/master/CHANGELOG.rst#400---2025-06-13)
- Define a `use_unsafe_codejail` decorator that allows running a unit test (or entire TestCase class) in unsafe mode
- Use that decorator as needed, based on which tests started failing
The original issue was that when a sequence was locked due to prerequisites, the API returned an empty items array ([]). This prevented the frontend from knowing what units were inside the locked sequence, meaning it couldn't construct the URLs correctly for navigation so the next/previous buttons stop working.
Some of the calls to `safe_exec` were missing the `limit_overrides_context`
parameter. This normally conveys the course key to codejail so that we can
give some courses different resource limits, but it's also valuable for
diagnosing codejail issues in logs and other telemetry.
I wasn't able to test all of these paths manually, but the utility function
`get_course_id_from_capa_block` will swallow errors, so the situation
should be no worse if the `LoncapaResponse.capa_block` field has something
unexpected.
For darklaunch comparisons where the two sides have different Python
versions, we'll want a more comprehensive list of normalizers.
- Expand the default list to include patterns discovered during a Python
3.8 vs. 3.12 comparison.
- Append the setting value by default, rather than replacing (but still
allow replacing).
- Use default normalizers if custom ones can't be loaded.
- Add log message when loading normalizers fails.
- Validate the replacement pattern, not just the search pattern.
This is intended to make logs more or less a standalone source for
analyzing mismatches.
- Only log mismatches or exceptions
- Merge local and remote log messages into one so they can be correlated
more easily
- Different log messages for mismatch vs. unexpected exceptions
- Include course ID (as limit overrides context) in log message
`unsafely` should be a boolean, not None. I believe this is what was
causing a 400 in remote codejail-service calls (during darklaunch) when
the `calculate_problem_responses_csv.v2` instructor task ran:
https://github.com/edx/edx-arch-experiments/issues/1028
There are also places in the code where this member appears to be a scalar
property instead of a method, or possibly that's just buggy code that
doesn't run. I decided not to touch that in this PR (we're probably going
to DEPR the entire unsafe mechanism anyhow) but if this PR doesn't work,
that's the next place to look -- because higher up in this file there's
a `can_execute_unsafe_code=None` that we could try changing.

- Fix bug where we were overwriting `remote_emsg` with None, and add test
that would have caught it.
- Suppress differences due solely to the codejail sandbox directory name
differing (in stack traces), and add test for this. Configurable because
we'll need to add an additional search/replace pair for the sandbox venv
paths.
- Add a variety of custom attributes, replacing existing ones. The attrs
now have a prefixed naming scheme to simplify searching.
- Add slug to log output so we can more readily correlate traces and logs,
as well as logs across services.
- Fix typo in error message.
- Fix existing import sort order lint.
- Separate test for misconfiguration
- Add helper method for generic dark launch testing
- Test two darklaunch scenarios: Globals interference, and error that would
previously have caused the remote side not to run
- Rename mocks to have our usual `mock_` prefix
- Catch all exceptions, not just Exception, to better prevent errors from
interfering with mainline responses.
- Introduce a separate try block around the monitoring code so that bugs
there don't cause issues.
- Print exception information as well for both sides (but only if not a
SafeExecException, which is redundant with emsg).
Some formatting changes to log messages as well.
Example outputs:
For `1/0`:
```
2025-04-14 17:26:34,239 INFO 10232 [xmodule.capa.safe_exec.safe_exec] [user 3] [ip 172.18.0.1] safe_exec.py:240 - Remote execution in darklaunch mode produces globals={'expect': None, 'ans': '1/0'}, emsg=None, exception=None

```
For `raise BaseException("hi")`:
```

```
With codejail-service down, and `out = 1 + 2`:
```

Please try again in a few minutes.')
2025-04-14 17:30:28,597 INFO 12484 [xmodule.capa.safe_exec.safe_exec] [user 3] [ip 172.18.0.1] safe_exec.py:246 - Local execution in darklaunch mode produces globals={'expect': None, 'ans': 'out = 1 + 2', 'out': 3, 'cfn_return': {'input_list': [{'ok': True, 'msg': 'Output:\n3', 'grade_decimal': 1}]}}, emsg=None, exception=None
```
During dark launch of remote codejail, we want to ensure we always run both
local and remote execution -- otherwise we're missing data for the remote
side in an important situation.
This will help answer the question of whether the unexpected exception
happens on both sides, even though it may not look exactly the same due to
differences in how unexpected errors are handled.
An example input that provokes this in unsafe execution mode is
`raise BaseException("hi")`; in safe execution mode, printing to
`sys.__stdout__` should also produce an appropriate error.

This PR adds contentstore.use_react_markdown_editor course waffle flag in cms.
This flag helps in enabling the markdown editor in the authoring mfe.
This PR also adds the markdown_edited field in the Problem Xblock to persist the
user's choice of switching to the markdown editor on the authoring MFE.

In the Annotatable XBlock, the <instructions> element was appearing
twice in the student view:
* Once in "annotatable-instructions" (where it should be).
* Again in "annotatable-content" (where annotations and other content are rendered).
The _render_content method processed and rendered the entire XML
data, including <instructions>, without removing it. The
_extract_instructions method, which is responsible for removing
<instructions>, was not called in _render_content, leading to
duplication.
This fix will:
* Prevents duplicate instructions in the student view.
* Maintains the expected behavior of showing instructions only in
"annotatable-instructions".
* No impact on existing annotation functionality.

This makes it easier to run matplotlib in codejail, and should prevent a
number of other issues in the future with other packages that need to
create tempfiles.
No change is required for existing codejail installations, but after this
change operators may be able to tighten their apparmor configuration to
prevent write access to global temp or cache dirs.
Manual testing instructions: Create a codejail problem that runs
`import matplotlib` and confirm that it runs without error. (Unit tests
aren't feasible here because this requires a fully configured codejail in
order for the tmp subdirectory to exist.)
Also: Add comment for `OPENBLAS_NUM_THREADS` and numpy support.
