Paul Holden 39d606ec27 MDL-74656 reportbuilder: ensure nulls preserved in column callbacks.
When concatenating column fields in order to perform aggregation on
them (e.g. group concatenation), we need to preserve all null values
in the data passed to each column callback.

Paul Holden eb2e261df4 MDL-73706 reportbuilder: fix count for columns with multiple fields.
When using the "Count distinct" aggregation type on a column that
selects multiple fields, we should account for each of them in the
returned SQL.

Move helper method to facilitate this to the base aggregation class
so it can be re-used between all types.

The group concatenation types now consistently sort the returned values
and support aggregating columns containing multiple fields and those
with defined callbacks.

Paul Holden 16a65f73e7 MDL-72663 reportbuilder: column API changes to improve aggregation.
Refinements to how columns can be defined in relation to available
aggregation methods:

* Disable aggregation types;
* Set column GROUP BY during aggregation;
* Defer column sorting to that of the aggregation method

Paul Holden f47e89a9bd MDL-70795 reportbuilder: editor elements to set column aggregation.
Aggregation of report columns allows the report editor to perform
common types of data aggregation (concatenation, sum, count, etc)
on given columns.
