We can switch the cache to session level if we are able to purge
different users caches, not only the one that belongs to the user
updating a grade category.
This is a squashed commit containing a number of changes:
This is an ajax driven course selector that has searching etc. It can select single, or multiple courses.
Make course selector accept a list of courses to exclude
courseselector - lookup coursename on setValue
Use the get_course_display_name_in_list function to generate the course names
Add a throttle to auto-complete to reduce spamming the server
Do a single query to fetch all the courses in the mform element when validation fails
Fix core course search function to return results when there are less than 2 chars in the query.
Handle setData with an empty array in new course selector
Introducing both APIs in moodle along with:
- search_box widget to add a tiny search box
- admin settings with setup steps helper
- cache for search results
- template for a search result
- php unit stuff

This commits removes stuff from different upgradelib files, used
exclusively by the already deleted upgrade steps. Given such
exclusivity it was not needed to proceed with a 2-phase deprecation
as far as the functions were 100% internal to upgrade.

corresponding upgrade.txt files:
