This commit includes the following changes:
- Implemented a scheduled task to automate the download and update of the GeoIP database.
- Integrated checksum verification for the downloaded database file.
- Added new configuration settings to enable administrators to enter MaxMind account credentials,
allowing authenticated access to both free and paid GeoIP database versions from Maxmind.
The patch introduces a new admin_setting fiela type that can be used for
specifying comma separated list of countries. The field has inbuilt
validation so that only valid country codes can be inserted.
This patch replaces all homegrown timezone
stuff with standard PHP date/time code.
The main change is the introduction of core_date
class that returns normalised user and server
timezones. From now on nobody should be using
$CFG->timezone or $user->timezone directly!
Other new features and fixes:
* admins are prompted for timezone during install
* editing of other users is finally fixed
* timezones are displayed in user profile
* new $this->setTimezone() in phpunit
* time locale is now automatically reset in phpunit
* timezone is now automatically reset in phpunit
* phpunit has Australia/Perth as default timezone
