- Extended set_config()
- Implemented get_config() which takes over $CFG loading in setup.php
- admin/auth.php has special handling if post vars starting in pluginconfig_
- admin/auth.php print_auth_lock_options() prints a form fragment -- being called from most plugins now
- user/edit.php follows the new convention when locking down fields, both javascript UI and on POST.
Previously we were literally doing hundreds of database queries, now it's
very much faster.
This makes the API slightly more complicated, but it's definitely worth it!
Each module should implement modname_print_overview, which takes an array of courses
and an array to fill up indexed by [$courseid]['modname'] for the controller to loop through and print.
Each module should LIMIT the number of queries to use, all module instances can be fetched
with the new function get_all_instances_in_courses which is the same as get_all_instances_in_course
but takes an array of courses to fetch the instances for. This means there is no need to loop
over the courses array and fetch the instances for each course (dramatically cutting down the number of queries!)
Added default values to migrate2utf8.xml, for any varchar and text field types, if the default values for these fields were not defined as '' in the MySQL table creation script.

(instead of the first, non-cached, invocation). Also, modified one
condition with no sense now. Needs testing (specially from PostgreSQL,
although it should work and the bug would be solved.

get_recordset* functions, instead of duplicating code.
Note: I've replaced the @deprecated tokens in phpdoc with an indication
that the get_records* calls are valid as convenience calls. The
get_recordset*() calls should be considered for performance and memory
footprint, but are not mandatory.
In a sense, deprecating get_records*() would mean a commitment to remove
them within X number of versions, which I am not sure we will do. Now,
if phpdoc has a @discouraged token, I'd like to hear about it ;-)
