If $CFG->enable_read_only_sessions_debug was not enabled, debugging could be
enabled part-way through a request when restart_with_write_lock was
called. This meant that a diff between the initial and final session
would be made during write_close(), although the intial session state
was never captured. This generated false positives in the logs, and it
thought any variable set in the session was a change from the original
value.
This ensures that debugging is enabled before the debug flag is allowed
to change, preventing false positives.
The original implementation of group filtering introduced in MDL-80565
assumed that the log table existed in Moodle's own database. This is not
the case of the database logstore, or any similar logstore implemetning
the database \core\log\sql_reader interface.
Furthermore this check was also applying the SQL when the user had the
`accessallgroups` capability, or when the course was not in SEPARATE
groups mode (no groupmode and/or visible groups).

For sites that rely on environment variables to set configuration,
ensure they are also present when executing task process.

Occurs when a plugin in incorrectly removed (via file system only,
rather than following proper uninstall process), and also contains
it's own sub-plugins.
In the above scenario, the update would request and receive back a
response for a plugin whose name was comprised of an empty string,
subsequently causing errors when processing said response.
It's better for the task to fail gracefully rather than silently
swallow any errors, so that the task API can schedule re-tries.
If the endpoint is temporarily down and/or misbehaving, this will
allow admins to have clearer failures.
- If a text format property defines the 'optional' attribute as true,
then the $required parameter that
is passed to \core\external\exporter::get_format_structure() should be
VALUE_OPTIONAL.
- If a default value is provided for a format property,
\core\external\exporter::get_format_structure() should pass the default
value to the external_format_value constructor.
- Added validation for external_format_value for the default parameter.
Debugging will be shown in case an invalid default value is passed.
- Amended unit tests for better coverage.
Previously, $CFG->sessionlockdebug was reporting long session locks for
all requests, even if they defined READ_ONLY_SESSION. This change
ensures that only sessions with locks are reported.
This resolves accessibility issues where Moodle language pack codes
didn't always map to correspondingly named iso6391 codes.
Where this value is defined in the language configuration, it will
now be used.
