Some message providers have an associated capability. For example
the mod/quiz:emailconfirmsubmission capability. At the moment,
we only show the preferences for the capabilities that the user
has in the system context.
That does not work for the example capability above. Typically
the capability will be overridden in one quiz, to allow for
Students, and the user will have the Student role in the course
context. Therefore, this message type does not appear on the
preferences page.
This fix corrects the logic, so that all message types that are
to the current user are displayed.
The expected behaviour is as follows:
* If the recently fetched data is older than 48 hours, it is considered
as outdated and the new fetch is executed
* else, if the recently fetched data is younger than 24 hours, it is
considered as fresh enough and no fetch is executed
* else, if the current time is after 01:00 AM plus a certain offset
(which is randomly generated for each site), the fetch is
executed.
Even in the 'Error if grade not listed case', it was applying a small
tolerance. In the case of a fuzzy match, it was returning the inexact
grade from the import file, rather than the precise grade that Moodle
was expecting.
That causes problems when the editing form is displayed, because the
value from the database does not match any of the available options, so
the grade is changed to 0%.
For third-parth plugins, in can be helpful if the 'More help' links in
help pop-ups (the ones that come from $string['..._link'] string in the
language file) can go to other places.
This change support two other sorts of URL in addition to the standard
'course/editing' type of link that goes to MoodelDocs.
You can use absolute URLs, starting http:// or https:///
You can use a link starting %%WWWROOT%%, and that token is replaced by
$CFG->wwwroot to make the link.
1/ the sort flag can not use Intl extension constants because they may not be available
2/ add sort flag to all methods
3/ use private constructor instead of abstract - more Java like API to match the textlib
4/ add natural sorting support
5/ consistent bool return type
6/ better non-intl fallback
7/ more tests
