Teachers should not radically edit a question after it has been
attempted. However, if they do, we should handle it gracefully, rather
than triggering PHP errors.
version = planned 2015051100 release version
requires= current 2015050500 rc1 version
Note: On purpose, the course format social wrong version (2015102100)
has been kept unmodified. Looking forward a solution right now.
There are several improvements over what we had before:
1. We track all the questions seen in the the student's previous
quiz attempts, so that when they start a new quiz attempt, they get
questions they have not seen before if possible.
2. When there are no more unseen questions, we start repeating, but
always taking from the questions with the fewest attempts so far.
3. A similar logic is applied with variants within one question.
There is lots of credit to go around here. Oleg Sychev's students Alex
Shkarupa, Sergei Bastrykin and Darya Beda all worked on this over
several years, helping to clarify the problem and shape the best
solution. In the end, their various attempts were rewritten into this
final patch by me.
Several tables have had unique keys added to enforce a constraint that
should always have been there. It is possible for old sites to have
data that violate the constraints, and sometimes people want to backup
data from those old sites, and restore them into a new Moodle.
Therefore, we need to guard agains the unique key violation errors.
This commit also fixes MDL-32049 about the lack or valdiation message
when an incomplete respnses is submitted.

These strings have already been copied from mod_quiz to qtype_numerical but
in the qtype_numerical plugin code the translations from mod_quiz were used.
Even though the strings were already present we copy the translations.

2 quiz tests are creating forms with text editors manually - they need to ensure a valid
$PAGE->url is set so they don't trigger debugging warnings from $PAGE->url magic method
called by Atto.
For users with edit permissions, but not add permissions, it was
impossible to save the editing form. The validation assuemd this value
was present, but it was not. Other code checks this field too, so I
added it rather than changing the validation and all the other uses.
For questions set to 'One answer only', the 'Clear incorrect responses'
and 'Show the number of correct responses' hint options make not sense,
and are not used. Hence we disableIf them.
In order to do this in a sane way, I cleaned up a lot of old mess,
inclduing:
1. Previously, qtype_calcuated used ->answeres when importing, and
->answer when saving the form. This was crazy, so I fixed it, and
stripped out the code that made the alternative variable name work.
2. Similarly, it could handle ->answer being either an array, such as
you would get form the HTML editor, or a simple string, which is what
you get form the form. I simplified that too.
3. Finally, I made import use a transaction around saving each
question, so we don't get half questions in the database when an error
occurs.
Some time ago, it when from using '0' for no-subcategories to blank.
Change to properly define '0' or '1', update old questions, and make
sure to fix newly restored questions.
