- Add new 'FEATURE_QUICKCREATE' plugin feature that indicates the module can
be created with a single click. It will use its own 'quickcreatename' defined
string as the initial default name.
- Add new 'core_courseformat\external\create_module' web service to create new
modules with the quickcreate featuer in the course page.
- Add a new 'create_module' state action.
Storage of session metadata has moved into the session handler class.
This allows for other classes to fully control session handling and
removes the dependancy on the core sessions database table.
Previously, the standard method of interaction with the
session metadata was direct DB calls; this may break other plugins as there
are now proper APIs available through the session manager.

Some email body strings use first names as greetings,
some use full names, and some do not.
Using the first name for greeting makes it consistent and
a bit more "personal".
The Open ID Connect plugin uses null for the password,
which makes the internal password update fail to proceed.
Allowing null resolved the problem.
As a note, there is a potential issue if the authentication method has
a false return for the prevent_local_password because it will trigger
the hash_internal_user_password() where the $password can not be null.
Since this only addresses the oauth2 issue, we should ignore it.
Per the previous commit, default homepage configuration (set either
for the site or as a user preference) can now be extended by third
party hook callbacks, in which case a URL is stored.
Using DI for all hook access means that it becomes significantly easier
to mock hooks and callbacks for unit testing without fundamentally
altering the structure of the code purely for the purposes of unit
testing.
This commit effectively reverts MDL-63153.
Calls to action in the UI for other products or marketing
should link directly to the corresponding services in moodle.com
rather than trying to replicate parts of it in LMS.
Note: Removing the manual require for the attribute from moodlelib
because the class does not have to exist at time of definition, only
when the Reflection API instantiates an instance in \core\deprecation,
by which point the autoloader is available.
