This patch removes the UI setting (cookiehttponly) for HTTP only
cookies. For new installs HTTP only cookies will default to on.
For existing sites teh behaviour will stay as set.
The behaviour can be overriden in config.php
This allows admins to configure whether contact site support is
available to everyone, authenticated users, or nobody.
The behat testing checks linked and direct access for each setting,
as well as adding testing that the support page override works as
expected.
Adds a callback xxx_pre_enable_plugin_actions in admin/modules.php
which plugins can use to force additional actions before enabling the
plugin. The return value (bool) from the plugin callback method
specifies whether the process of enabling the plugin should continue
after the added actions or not.
I suppose the original reasoning was that the web services protocols are
pluggable and that plugins can provide external function. But those are
not good reasons to put the whole Web services section under plugins.
Web services are not a plugin type and they always felt very
counter-intuitive there.
From the server administrtaion perspective, web services are similar to
scheduled tasks and therefore, they should live in the same section.
