By "useless" due dates I'm specifically talking about due dates which
are erroneously set in the course strucutre, but which don't matter
because the entire course is self-paced, rather than instructor-paced.
JIRA:EDUCATOR-5713
Synchronously registering proctored exams while saving content to studio is causing a significant slow down. The function that registers the exams has been moved to an async task. In addition, a signal handler on_course_publish has also been moved to the async task, as it relies on exam registration being complete before being executed.
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.

* Enable import failure and email with Errors/Warnings
This PR enables course import failure in case of olx validation errors. Here is the flow.
* Course Import tries to import foo.tar.gz into their course shell
* Course olx contains validation errors
* During course import, olx is validated and import is failed with the error message "Course olx validation failed. Please check your email."
* System generates an email with ERRORs & WARNINGs in the body of the email.
This PR also adds a waffle flag contentstore.bypass_olx_failure. The purpose of this test flag is to allow course teams to unblock by enabling them to bypass the
the olx-validation failure.
The workaround is shared on the ticket TNL8214.
* Disable olx validation out of the box.
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].

Attempting to import packages from
lms/djangoapps, cms/djangoapps, or common/djangoapps
as if they are import roots will now
simply raise ImportErrors (like any other invalid
import) instead of DeprecatedEdxPlatformImportError.
See docs/decisions/0007-sys-path-modification-removal.rst
for more details.
* Use config settings for olxcleaner
Use config settings instead of hardcoded values for olx validation. This would help in adding a great deal of control when you want to change these settings in the future. With this approch we would not need a redeploy.
* Use configs and deprecate waffleflag and also add / update tests
We have decided not to pursue the decentralized devstack design right
now and so we want to cleanup files and task that were built as a part
of the process.

Currently, login and registration forms and view to log the user in
are sharing same ratelimit settings which is causing too much noise
while rendering forms.This PR will introduce a separate
setting for logistration forms.

Video SJSON transcripts are supposed to be UTF-8 encoded, but SJSON
is an ad hoc thing we made up to make it easier to build the
transcripts viewer in the VideoBlock, and it's not well specified.
Prior to this commit, if you had an SJSON file with Latin-1 encoded
text outside the standard ASCII range (e.g. û), then we'd error out
while trying to export it.
This was blocking an effort to export some Old Mongo courses (TNL-8007).
A variety of updates were made to improve the toggle documentation:
* Added comments to help ensure that the waffle(), waffle_switches(),
waffle_flags() anti-pattern won't be contagious (copied).
* Some minor toggle_description updates.
* Removed empty toggle_target_removal_date annotations for
non-temporary toggles.
* Removed empty optional toggle_warnings annotations.
* Removed empty optional toggle_tickets annotations.
* Removed deprecated toggle_category, toggle_status,
and toggle_expiration_date annotations.
* Fixed some indents, use cases, and implementations.
