MDL-55667 navigation: Do not display site participants link to students

The problem here was that user/index.php checks the system level
capability moodle/site:viewparticipants when the user is on the front
page, and the moodle/course:viewparticipants on non-front pages.

But the navigation displayed the link by mistake even in situations,
when the user has the capability moodle/course:viewparticipants on the
front page (typically when the default role for the front page is set to
student).

Added behat tests for reproducing the bug and also for checking the
basic functionality of the feature.

Feature: Displaying the link to the Participants page
In order to see the course / site participants
As a student / admin respectively
I need a link to the Participants page be displayed (but only if I can access that page)
Background:
Given the following "users" exist:
| username | firstname | lastname | email |
| student1 | Student | One | student1@example.com |
| student2 | Student | Two | student2@example.com |
And the following "courses" exist:
| fullname | shortname |
| Course1 | C1 |
And the following "course enrolments" exist:
| user | course | role |
| student1 | C1 | student |
@javascript
Scenario: Course participants link is displayed to enrolled students after expanding the course node
When I log in as "student1"
And I expand "C1" node
Then "Participants" "link" should exist in the "Navigation" "block"
And I navigate to "Participants" node in "My courses > C1"
And I should see "Participants"
And "Student One" "link" should exist
And "Student Two" "link" should not exist
Scenario: Site participants link is displayed to admins
When I log in as "admin"
Then "Participants" "link" should exist in the "Navigation" "block"
And I navigate to "Participants" node in "Site pages"
And I should see "Participants"
And "Student One" "link" should exist
And "Student Two" "link" should exist
@javascript
Scenario: Site participants link is not displayed to students (MDL-55667)
Given I log in as "admin"
And I set the following administration settings values:
| defaultfrontpageroleid | Student (student) |
And I log out
When I log in as "student2"
And I expand "Site pages" node
Then "Participants" "link" should not exist in the "Navigation" "block"
