* feat: make it possible to globally disable forum v2 with setting
We introduce a setting that allows us to bypass any course waffle flag
check. The advantage of such a setting is that we don't need to find the
course ID: in some cases, we might not have access to the course ID, and
we need to look for it... in forum v2.
See discussion here: https://github.com/openedx/forum/issues/137
* chore: bump openedx-forum to 0.1.5
This should fix an issue with index creation on edX.org.
This commit introduces the new Forum V2 application, allowing users to choose between the legacy Forum V1 and the new Forum V2 at the course level.
Key Changes:
- Added waffle flag `discussions.enable_forum_v2` to enable Forum V2 for selected courses, allowing coexistence with Forum V1.
- Default data storage for Forum V2 is set to MongoDB, with an option to switch to MySQL using the waffle flag `forum_v2.enable_mysql_backend`.
- Introduced management command `forum_migrate_course_from_mongodb_to_mysql` for per-course data migration from MongoDB to MySQL.
Note: This PR does not include all unit tests for the Forum V2 native API due to ongoing migration efforts. Further updates will follow to ensure full test coverage before final release.

As of Python 3.3, the 3rd-party `mock` package has been subsumed into the
standard `unittest.mock` package. Refactoring tests to use the latter will
allow us to drop `mock` as a dependency, which is currently coming in
transitively through requirements/edx/paver.in.
We don't actually drop the `mock` dependency in this PR. That will happen
naturally in:

Description
This is a follow up to #29058 and #29413. This is the next step in moving part of the modulestore data (the course indexes / "active versions" table) from MongoDB to MySQL.
There are four steps planned in moving course index data to MySQL:
Step 1: create the tables in MySQL, start writing to MySQL + MongoDB ✅ done
Step 2: migrate all remaining courses to MySQL ✅ done
Step 3: switch reads from MongoDB to MySQL (this PR)
Step 4 (much later, once we know this is working well): stop writing to MongoDB altogether.

Status
✅ Tested with a large Open edX instance is in progress.
Testing instructions
Try making changes in Studio and verify that they work fine.
Deadline
None
Convert more tests from MONGO_AMNESTY to SPLIT modulestores.
This is in preparation for just wholesale denying access to Old
Mongo, so I either converted tests to split or just deleted some
test variants that were Old Mongo specific. (e.g. ddt lines)
