This moves all course runs that use certificates over to V2 of course certificates, and disables the option for a course run to use V1 of course certificates.

- Remove the REDIRECT_TO_COURSEWARE_MICROFRONTEND waffle flag.
- Add a new COURSEWARE_USE_LEGACY_FRONTEND waffle flag that directs
all learners to the legacy courseware experience.
- Skip two failing a11y tests which fail due to the new default of
the courseware MFE.

For self-paced courses, we have decided to switch to showing the end
date as long as it is within 365 days rather than the expected
duration of the course.
In DE-1822, we believed we needed to switch to start_date and end_date.
It was determined this was not the case, so this updates the comment
to ensure future users use the correct fields (start and end) and
updates any pieces of code that may have used start_date or end_date.
Currently, course staff can always view their courses
in the Legacy courseware experience.
With this change, course staff will *not* be able
to view their courses if the New (MFE) courseware
experience has been enabled for them.
This does not affect global staff, and it does not
affect courses that are still running in the Legacy
experience.
Adds a new parameter returned by the course metadata API
used by the courseware MFE to determine if the button to
show legacy experience should be displayed or not.

Modify the existing login api in a way that
it will allow the user to login via username as well.
currently it is only allowing email to log the user in.

Since the ENABLE_COURSEWARE_MICROFRONTEND Django setting
was removed, the "View in New Experience" button began
to always appear in Legacy courseware for global staff
members in *all* environments.
This was OK for edx.org's purposes, since the Learning MFE
is deployed in all of our production environments.
However, many (perhaps most) Lilac Open edX instances will
*not* deploy the Learning MFE. So, we need to make sure that
this button is not shown by default.
Since we cannot programmatically tell from LMS whether
or not the Learning MFE is deployed, we will depend on
the value of the `courseware.microfrontend_course_team_preview`
flag, which is already being used to decide whether
course staff can see the "View in New Experience" button.
Whether or not the button is shown, global staff will
still be permitted to browse courses in the Learning
MFE if it is deployed.

Because xblock handlers normally get a block tree that already has
inaccessible blocks stripped, they don't see FBE gated blocks at
all. So the get_completion handler would return True for FBE units
incorrectly. Leading to a visual bug as an audit user went through
their units in the courseware.
In order to let the handler know about the full tree, I've added a
new attribute you can set on your xblock handlers:
my_handler.will_recheck_access = True
This will tell the top-level handler code get the full tree for you.
As part of this, I've also changed the sequence xblock handler's
into proper xblock handlers (not old-style xmodule handlers).
This changes their URLs slightly. I've kept the old URLs for now
as well, but they'll be removed after Maple.

This helper is used by the LMS, CMS, _and_ `openedx.core`,
so let's move it to `openedx.core` to reduce import complexity.
The following files no longer import from LMS:
- cms/djangoapps/contentstore/management/commands/edit_course_tabs.py
- lms/djangoapps/ccx/migrations/0006_set_display_name_as_override.py
- openedx/core/djangoapps/ccxcon/api.py
- openedx/core/djangoapps/verified_track_content/models.py
- openedx/features/course_experience/plugins.py
Note: The LTI XBlock has a dependency on this import path (!?);
a fix can be found here [1].

We have been bucketing all users into the relative dates experiment
since May 18, 2020. We no longer need to keep this as an
ExperimentWaffleFlag and can convert to a CourseWaffleFlag (so it
continues to support exemptions).
The /jump_to/ LMS endpoint is used in a number of places
to direct users to courseware. It currently only redirects to
Legacy courseware URLs, which then conditionally may
redirect to the Learning MFE.
Two issues with this:
1. Performance Impact: In most cases, going to Legacy first
is just an extra redirect.
2. Confusion for Privileged Users: Neither course nor global
staff are auto-redirected from the Legacy experience to the
MFE. Thus, these priviliged users confusingly never see the
MFE by default; they must always manually click into it.
This commit makes it so that /jump_to/ directs
users to whatever the default courseware experience is
for them. For staff of courses active in the new experience,
this will impact (at a minimum) the "View Live"
links in Studio, all links on the old and new LMS
course outline, and the "Resume" links on the course
dashboard. Learners should see no difference other than
a performance improvement when following courseware links
from the LMS.
This also adds an optional 'experience=[legacy|new]'
query param to /jump_to/, allowing us to specifically
generate Legacy courseware URLs for the
"View in Legacy Experience" tool.
