If a quiz had a long job to calculate statstics running, this would
cause pages that may also attempt a recalculation (the statistics report
page or question bank) to load very slowly, and possibly result in a
database deadlock.
This change will firstly prevent the question bank page performing
analysis calculations at all, since these are not required for this
page, which will speed up loading and prevent deadlocks on this page.
Secondly, this adds a lock to the recalcuation process so that it cannot
run twice concurrently. This will present the user with a message to
indicate that it is waiting for a running calculation until it is
complete, and eventually it will timeout with a message and debugging.
The above syntax is defined as supported by the class, for example the
format '5/10' means:
"At every 10th <unit> from 5 through <max>."
It is analogous to '5-<max>/10'.
Introduce a lang string `questioniconfollowlangdirection` that will
allow the current behaviour of displaying the question mark icon
in RTL languages in the same manner as the current language.
This fixes the changes made in MDL-75047:
* Change `thisicondirection` langconfig string to a more specific one
like `questionicondirection`.
* Use existing direction string value `ltr` for the value of
`questionicondirection`. Also add a comment to at least provide some
form of documentation for it.
* Improve the logic for applying the horizontal flipping class for the
question icon:
- Check first if the icon is a question icon
- Flip the icon if `questionicondirection` is set to `rtl`.
Add a new method for activity_header that determines the heading level
depending on whether the theme displays a heading for the activity
header (usually a h2 heading with the activity name).
E.g. in Boost, the activity name is already being displayed in a
heading. So page headings can be rendered as h2. However, on Classic,
the activity name is being displayed as a h2 heading. So headings need
to be adjusted for the activity pages.
Previously, a set of calculated quiz statistics would only 'last' for
15 minutes. Then they would be considered invalid and not used.
Now, computed statistics are kept indefinitely. Instead, when a new
batch of values are computed for a particular set of settings, older numbers
for the same settings are deleted first. Therefore,
question_stats_cleanup_task is no more.
Recent additions to timezones from the IANA TZDB are not necessarily
reflected in those used by the intl extension and/or ICU zones:
* America/Ciudad_Juarez
* America/Nuuk
* Europe/Kyiv
* Pacific/Kanton
Create mapping to allow these zones to be used without errors.
The apiBase in .well-known/badgeconnect.json was ignored and it was
causing some failures when connecting or sending badges to an
external backpack.
For OBv2.1, it has been changed to always use the apiBase defined
in the badgeconnect.json backpack provider.
After the user creation, the system must call an update function to update profile_fields_*.
We also provided two functions into user/profile/lib.php to get available from other areas.
We added PHP unit testing for new public functions and
the Behat tests for custom profile fields with locked and unlocked statuses.

Update oauth2 to allow mapping of provider attributes against
user profile fields. Fields can also be locked to prevent
user changes.

Whenever some plugin is missing from disk but installed, the plugins
page (and the upgrade) shows them as "missing from disk". Still, the
code tries to do things with their directory that, now, is null.
That was silently defaulting to '' in previous php versions, but
php81 emits a deprecated warning. So we have to check for them.
