The problem was mostly that, in the past, we did not worry if
question_attempt_step.id changed during regrade (because we deleted the
old step row and inserted a new one). However, now that steps can have
associated files, we can't be that slack, becuase the step id is used as
the file itemid.
So, now, we have to update the existing rows during a regrade. We do
this by having the question engine tell the question_engine_unit_of_work
that the step has first been deleted, and then added back. Then we make
the unit-of-work spot that delete + add = update.
This also means that during regrading, we have to pass around some extra
ids so that new steps know the id of the step they are replacing.
Naturally, this requires some quite trickly logic, so I finally got
around to writing unit tests for question_engine_unit_of_work, which is
a good thing.
Along the way I also got around to renaming
question_attempt->set_number_in_usage, which got missed out when
everthing else was renamed to slot ages ago.
Finally, while working on this code, I noticed and fixed some PHPdoc
comments.
This commit also includes a lot of useful tidying up of some of the unit
test helper code. I turned out that I could not use all the helper code
in my new tests, but despite that it will be useful in the future, so I
am committing it here.
While doing this, I found various bugs in the manages question types admin page, and so fixed them, and updated the code
there to use $OUTPUT and html_writer.

The features are attachements with repsonses, control over whether the respons can contain images, letting the question author set the size for the input box, and allowing the author to input some text that is shown to the grader.
