While fixing MDL-30170, the following tiny usability details were
improved along the way:
* the maximum length of the peer site title and the hostname is now
validated (this was actually a real bug as the default value is pre-loaded
from the peer) so the admin gets a nice validation error instead of
the database write exception when trying to register a host with a
longer site title.
* hard-coded English string 'All Hosts' is now localized
* the hostname link in the list of MNet peers leads to the peer itself
The patch highlights the undelete radio selector at the host edit form.
It moves it to the end of the form (near the submit button) and displays
an explanation above the radio selector.
Also, the list of deleted hosts is now displayed below the table of
active peers at the Manage peers page.
The data returned by mnet_get_hosts() function now contain the deleted
status, too. It is possible to obtain deleted hosts from that function
now.
Added the * option that is not affected by the 'varying-pagetype'
problem that has been detected and issued @ MDL-30564. So now, it's
(back) possible to define coursecat blocks to be spread over children
coursecats/courses/modules (contexts).
Instead of using the default dataroot location, the tempdir and cachedir
are now set under the real dataroot location specified via the argument
and/or the interactive session.
The patch also adds a PARAM_PATH check for the dataroot specified.

There were already one just added upgrade.txt file so this ended
conflicting. Reviewed the contents, I've deleted the less detailed
note about pluginname, leaving the longer description added by Tim.
Ciao :-)
