The Webpack configuration file for built-in XBlock JS used to be
generated at build time and git-ignored. It lived at
common/static/xmodule/webpack.xmodule.config.js. It was generated
because the JS that it referred to was also generated at build-time, and
the filenames of those JS modules were not static.
Now that its contents have been made entirely static [1], there is no
reason we need to continue generating this Webpack configuration file.
So, we check it into edx-platform under the name
./webpack.builtinblocks.config.js. We choose to put it in the repo's
root directory because the paths contained in the config file are
relative to the repo's root.
This allows us to behead both the xmodule/static_content.py
(`xmodule_assets`) script andthe `process_xmodule_assets` paver task, a
major step in removing the need for Python in the edx-platform asset
build [2]. It also allows us to delete the `HTMLSnippet` class and all
associated attributes, which were exclusively used by
xmodule/static_content.py..
We leave `xmodule_assets` and `process_xmodule_assets` in as stubs for
now in order to avoid breaking external code (like Tutor) which calls
Paver; the entire pavelib/assets.py function will be eventually removed
soon anyway [3]. Further, to avoid extraneous refactoring, we keep one
method of `HTMLSnippet` around on a few of its former subclasses:
`get_html`. This method was originally part of the XModule framework;
now, it is left over on a few classes as a simple internal helper
method.

Most of the methods in `XmlMixin` act as wrappers for the official API for
serialization and deserialization (parse_xml() and add_xml_to_node()).
`XmlParserMixin` contains the code which does the actual serialization and
deserialization.
This attribute is already deprecated for XBlocks in favour of directly
retrieving it like `block.scope_ids.usage_id.context_key`.
This commit also removes some redundant logging code which was omitted in the
Datadog removal in #19420.

This PR aims at refactoring the discussion xblock sub project and moving it within the xmodule directory effectively removing its position as a sub project within edx-platform
