"""
A higher order function implemented on top of the
block_structure.get_blocks function returning a transformed block
structure for the given user starting at starting_block_usage_key.
Arguments:
user (django.contrib.auth.models.User) - User object for
which the block structure is to be transformed.
starting_block_usage_key (UsageKey) - Specifies the starting block
of the block structure that is to be transformed.
transformers (BlockStructureTransformers) - A collection of
transformers whose transform methods are to be called.
If None, COURSE_BLOCK_ACCESS_TRANSFORMERS is used.
collected_block_structure (BlockStructureBlockData) - A
block structure retrieved from a prior call to
BlockStructureManager.get_collected. Can be optionally
provided if already available, for optimization.
Returns:
BlockStructureBlockData - A transformed block structure,
starting at starting_block_usage_key, that has undergone the
transform methods for the given user and the course
associated with the block structure. If using the default
transformers, the transformed block structure will be
exactly equivalent to the blocks that the given user has
access.
