Until now in the get_assignments WS all the settings for assignment
plugins (submission and feedback) are returned, this was bad because:
- It was returning settings for plugins that may not be enabled
- It was returning settings that would be a security risk (a third
party plugin including a password or credentials for connecting a
remote site)
- Some values was returned "raw" without further processing, for
example, maxsubmissionsizebytes returned 0 when using the plugin
default value instead a valid size
- Assignment plugins implemented an API for communication with the
external API, see for example: get_external_parameters, it didn’t make
sense had an API for the received parameters and not the returned data.
This is mostly fixed by MDL-36832 which correctly sets the $PAGE->url.
This patch hides the submit and textareas from submission comments in the grading table when
javascript is disabled and quickgrading is enabled. This particular combination results in a form
nested in a form which does not work (and cannot be fixed in a reasonable amount of time).
This was preventing the view full submission/feedback link from appearing
everywhere in the assignment when the submission/feedback content had been
truncated in the summary because it was too long (or too many files)
