This functionality was commented out in
78946b9bdb for MDL-20204 back in 2009.
Since then it has been wasting cycles performing utterly pointless
preg_match and preg_replace calls.
In MDL-50891, the is_web_crawler() was refactored into a core_useragent
method and the function itself was deprecated. However, there were no
unit tests kept to check the backwards compatible behaviour. It turned
out that the deprecated function leads to PHP fatal error due to a typo.
This patch fixes the typo and brings back the previous unit tests. To be
able to explicitly check the raised debugging message, the test case
now must be subclass of advanced_testcase.
Additionally fixes missing info about the function being deprecated.
Added new functions to editor api - set/get_text so the
original form text can be determined from an editor.
When calling use_editor() you should first call set_text() with
the text that will be inserted in the form element.
There is also a new scheduled task for cleaning Atto autosave drafts.
Part of MDL-45774.

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
These functions are getting final deprecation following our process.
Note that print_arrow() is getting more time due to incorrect
replacement - see MDL-45448
Added property 'visible' for cohorts. Unsetting it hides the cohort from users in the course.

* Upgrades existing data so that the groupmembersonly option is
replaced with equivalent data for the new availability API.
* Removes the database field and admin setting used for
groupmembersonly.
* Changes core modinfo library to remove/deprecate groupmembersonly
data and functions.
* Changes other core library files to remove groupmembersonly
references.
Includes deprecation of several functions, listed in lib/upgrade.txt.
Changes core code to use new API instead of the old one when
checking user access to activities and sections.
Includes changes to other libraries that are necessary after
adding the availability system and removing old conditional tables
etc.
A bad conflict resolution in 7eaca5a810
wiped this function from the deprecatedlib file. This patch
restores it.
But as we should not call any deprecated function in core we
also remove the its usage.
