Kyle McCormick 834cb9482d refactor: rename ModuleStore runtimes now that XModules are gone (#35523)
* Consolidates and renames the runtime used as a base for all the others:
  * Before: `xmodule.x_module:DescriptorSystem` and
            `xmodule.mako_block:MakoDescriptorSystem`.
  * After:  `xmodule.x_module:ModuleStoreRuntime`.

* Co-locates and renames the runtimes for importing course OLX:
  * Before: `xmodule.x_module:XMLParsingSystem` and
            `xmodule.modulestore.xml:ImportSystem`.
  * After:  `xmodule.modulestore.xml:XMLParsingModuleStoreRuntime` and
            `xmodule.modulestore.xml:XMLImportingModuleStoreRuntime`.
  * Note: I would have liked to consolidate these, but it would have
          involved nontrivial test refactoring.

* Renames the stub Old Mongo runtime:
  * Before: `xmodule.modulestore.mongo.base:CachingDescriptorSystem`.
  * After: `xmodule.modulestore.mongo.base:OldModuleStoreRuntime`.

* Renames the Split Mongo runtime, the which is what runs courses in LMS and CMS:
  * Before: `xmodule.modulestore.split_mongo.caching_descriptor_system:CachingDescriptorSystem`.
  * After: `xmodule.modulestore.split_mongo.runtime:SplitModuleStoreRuntime`.

* Renames some of the dummy runtimes used only in unit tests.

Status: Maintenance

Responsibilities
================
The Student app supplements Django's default user information with student-specific information like User Profiles and Enrollments. This has made it a catch all place for a lot of functionality that we want to move into more dedicated places. For instance, while the CourseEnrollment models remain in this app for now, most Enrollment related functionality has already moved to the Enrollment app.

If you are thinking of adding something here, strongly consider adding a new Django app instead. If you are extending something here, please consider extracting it into a separate app.

Intended responsibility: Student dashboard functionality.
