- Linking classes/methods mentioned in PHPDoc with @see tags help devs
checking the PHPDoc to quickly navigate to the class/method mentioned
and also helps us ensure that it points to the correct class/method.
- Some typo/grammar fixes as well in existing PHPDoc descriptions.
- Fixed parameter type in execute()'s PHPDoc block.
If you have one course format that extends another one, any course
format output classes that are not defined in the child format will
now inherit from the parent (instead of from the base class as
before).
Modified course format options reading and writing to be able to handle Editor elements by enabling them to split array values into
multiple values before inserting into database, and combining multiple values into an array when reading from the database.
Modified backup and restore code to use backup_nested_elements, and to interact directly with the database.

To ensure legacy course formats works on Moodle 4.0 some method are
reintroduced (but marked as deprecated) like start_section_list and
end_section_list. Furthermore, the course_section_cm_availability
returns a string again as expected.
When updating/deleting a section/module, the system now only
invalidate of the element (section/module), not the whole course cache
Also, the system now only recalculate the cache for element (section/module)
if necessary, not the whole course cache
Move module/section purging to course_modinfo:
+ course_modinfo::purge_course_section_cache_by_id was created to purge section by id
+ course_modinfo::purge_course_section_cache_by_number was created to purge section by number
+ course_modinfo::purge_course_module_cache was created to purge module
For legacy reasons, the course renderings uses a format setting to know
if the page is multiple sections per page or a single section per page.
This format specific dependency is not solved using a get_course_display
format method any plugin can extend.
Now content and course index sections have special mutations to store
the collapsed preferences. This way the backend implementation is
independent of the frontend one and can use caches or other kind of
optimizations of necessary.
Orignally, the lock icon in the course index and the course content
represents different things and it was confusing for users. Now both
section and cm state data calculate the hasRestrictions attribute the
same way as the course content lock icons.
Move the section visible logic to the format base class. This way format
plugins can decide whenever a section is visible or not instead of using
format custom settings from core.
The course index lock icon depends on the state hasrestrictions
attributes on both section and course module. The lock icon
should be consistent with the content availability information
and it was not. With this patch the hasrestrictions attribute
uses a similar logic than the course content.
