* feat: adds VerticalBlockChildrenLoaded filter call
This introduces the VerticalBlockChildrenLoaded filter that is run after
all the child blocks are fetched before rendering a student or the
public view. This will allow modifying the contents of the VerticalBlock
before presenting it to the students.
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 PR changes the default behaviour of the discussions experience by making the previous "unit-level
visibility" the default mechanism for configuring discussions.
Prior to this PR, under the new discussions configuration experience, all units would automatically get
assigned a discussion topic and have discussions enabled for them (other than units in graded or exam
subsections). However, if authors wanted they could enabled a custom visibility mode which would allow
toggling discussions on or off on a per-unit level.
This PR makes this custom visibility mode the standard behaviour (and eventually, only behaviour)
and enables discussion for all units by default. This replicates the behaviour that already existed,
however, now gives authors control over disabling discussions for individual units by default.
It also removes the ability to disable discussions for all units (while still keeping course-wide
discussions) enabled.
This commit adds a openedx-filters hook to the VerticalBlock XBlock
before rendering of it's children. This allows Open edX plugins to
customize the presentation of specific blocks based on the context.
