In MDL-79985 a new form element was created to display a new generic
dropdown with extra information like a description or an icon on each
option.
This commits replaces the select for the course format form element in
the Course settings page with this new component.
After UX research, the conclusion is that all formats should use "section"
and not try to use alternative terms such as topic or week.
This commit replaces topic and week references with section. A couple of
considerations:
- Most of the strings in topics and weeks formats have been removed. In that
particular case it's not required to follow the deprecation process because
they will be using the generic ones defined in moodle or courseformat.
- The sectionname will be renamed from "Topic"/"Week" to "New section" in
MDL-80460.
Most section related actions require the frontend to use alternative
strings depending on the format plugin lang file. This patch adds
overridden strings to the current setViewFormat course editor setup
object.
Creates a new method of handling all the section related icons.
Including a new method that places these actions in a menu for topic and
weeks course formats. (This version replaces "Edit" with "Topic/Week/or
Section menu")
Topics and weeks have been converted to use a shared renderer to output
their content.
Note, I started with good intentions but this renderer has mixed
paradgims due to fast and cheap winning out on the trinity.
