connorhaugh a2a2a1f433 fix: Report Custom Python Errors to Instructors (#28199)
Partner Support commonly raises the issue of instructors' custom Python problems not generating any response report on the instructor dashboard. Such errors are due to the operating restrictions placed on codejail. Sometimes not all answers can be processed by the server, which kills off some to accommodate. Instead of spiking the whole report, this change logs not only the error in our system, but also allows the mostly complete response to reach the instructor.

This PR will decrease friction not only for Partner support and instructors, but T&L, who have periodically implemented workarounds to the problem.

The PR merely implements exception handling for generating reports which logged exceptions and added them to the report, continuing the work done in TNL-8218 which did the same for grading.

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.
