This introdues the idea of "upstream" and "downstream" content,
where downstreams (like course components) can pull content updates from
upstreams (like learning core-backed content library blocks). This
supports the upcoming Content Libraries Relaunch Beta for Sumac.
New features include:
* A new XBlockMixin: UpstreamSyncMixin.
* A new CMS Python API: cms.lib.xblock.upstream_sync
* A new CMS JSON API: /api/contentstore/v2/downstreams
* A temporary, very basic UI for syncing from Content Library blocks
Implements:
