Dillon Dumesnil 61b93d953d feat: Add backfill course tabs management command
Previously, course tabs would only be created once and never try to
update the default tabs again. This leads to an issue if you ever want
to add a new tab. With this command, you can now update the default tabs
for all existing courses and new courses will pick it up upon creation
when CourseTabList.initialize_default is called.

Status: Deprecated (DEPR-24)

Responsibilities
================
XModules render specific course run content types to users for both authoring and learning. For instance, there is an XModule for Videos, another for HTML snippets, and another for Sequences. This package provides both the implementations of these XModules as well as some supporting utilities.

Direction: Convert and Extract
==============================
XModule exists today as a complex set of compatibility shims on top of XBlock (all XModules currently inherit from XBlock). The goal is for all XModules to either be converted into pure XBlocks or be deleted altogether. Extracting them into separate repositories would be ideal, but even just converting them to pure XBlocks would significantly simplify the runtime.
