These methods can be called via UI, and would throw confusing exceptions
if a user entered "unsafe" characters in a search input (e.g. "<").
Defer cleaning of supplied text to inside the methods.
- Introduce core_course_category::get_nearest_editable_subcategory()
- This function will return the first creatable/manageable category

course management or creation permision at category level cannot see
the manage menu on My courses page
Previously, the timeline block courses view included all courses in
alphabetical order, whether they contained any events matching the
relevant filters or not. This could be tedious and misleading if there
were many courses with no events appearing before a course which did
have matching events. Now, courses are only included if they contain
events matching the currently set time filter and search term. When
those values are modified, the block will be refreshed and fetch
results for the current values, and also takes these into
consideration when determining whether to display the show more courses
button.
The menubar role defined in the "menubar d-flex" element is not
required and it's causing the following error "Required ARIA children
role not present: group, menuitemradio, menuitem, menuitemcheckbox".
The format_string() function does half html escaping. It escapes < and >
characters, but does not escape ". Therefore, it put us in a situation
where neither {{}}, nor {{{}}} are suitable in templates. If we use {{}}
for an attribute (like title or aria-label), then < and > characters
will be double escaped. On the other hand, if we use {{{}}} there, a
double quote character will break HTML when it is used in an attribute.
Therefore, neither {{}}, nore {{{}}} are usable in html attributes.
Moreover, The title attribute here was redundant because it had the same
value as the link's text.

Course category fields were changed en masse from simple select
elements to autocompletes in 93d72205, but weren't defined as
required fields. This could lead to exceptions and/or unexpected
behaviour if their values were cleared prior to form submission.
The get_output_classname method is used to invoke overridden output
components from course_formats. Now the method does not accept null
output names anymore, and it controls the format class is extending
the core one.
Until Moodle 4.0, renderer.php file was optional (although highly recommended)
for course formats. From Moodle 4.0 onwards, renderer is required to support
the new course editor implementation.
The legacy_format_renderer class has been created for backward compatibility,
to avoid some errors with course formats (such as social) without the renderer
file. Apart from that, course_format->get_renderer() method has been reviewed
to use this legacy_format_renderer when no renderer.php file is found.
